I bought the Acer Predator Helios 300 4 days ago because I'm a beginner and I've just bought The Forest and downloaded and when I play it for 15 min or so the fan gets louder and louder because of the heat in the CPU I think I wanted to ask if this is normal or if you have to adjust something or something. Thanks to everyone who helps

(NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX, 8th gen, The forest is on the 2nd HDD, ddr4 …)

Notebooks are generally a little louder… Simply because the case is smaller and smaller overall. Applies then also for the components in it… Eg. Fans, etc.

That's why it's a bit louder. In addition, the notebook is mostly in front of you and perceives the "noise" a bit better.

It's normal for the fan to turn up because it needs to cool the video card.

You may be able to turn down the fan speed with MSI Afterburner, but keep an eye on the ° C of the GPU. So the GPU should not overheat.

With a desktop PC you would not have such problems, since case fans are installed and the temperature of the graphics card is then lower.

Desktop PCs are also cheaper and have more power than the overpriced laptops.

My protip for about 10 ° less temp. At least with me:

"Unpack" laptop. By that I mean take something about 5ca high zb the power supply or a book where the power supply would then be hotter, etc. And put the laptop so on the power supply (or other) so that where the air sucked (usually below) is not the table is but 3-5cm air then comes more air ran and cools better

in the end it leads to it
