The fan control apps I tried don't allow controlling fans on my laptop. The problem is I think just over 40C, the laptop fans really are loud while on windows the treshold is so much higher. Also I think on Windows it's possible to indirectly control this through power settings. Is there -anything- I can do to lower the fan tresholds? Perhaps by somehow stunting the CPU/GPU max frequencies or something like that?
- Where's your inxi output? You saw the rules.
- Install and try another kernel, such as the -lts.

If you include terminal outputs in your post please use the proper output format in your post.
Using "~" 3 times above and "~" 3 times below the text block will provide a readable, raw look.
Thank you for fixing up the text SGS! Looks adorable now.
Tried a few different kernels without any difference.
Between Windows10 and Linux, the biggest difference is that while simply browsing on Windows 10 fans almost always stay passive, even when youtube is playing. On Linux simple browsing is sometimes enough for it to go from audible to a bit annoying. So the problem is not just the games.
Maybe you could give a look at this thread.
Not necessarily a solution, but at least an input for some aspects that could be checked...
Examining the computer fan is the quickest way to determine whether it has ceased functioning. When using a desktop computer, the fan is typically seen turning on the back of the chassis. Before using your computer further, you must replace the fan immediately if it is not functioning. The most frequent problem individuals have with their PCs is fan noise. How To Check If The CPU's Fans Are working. Making sure your computer's fans are functioning correctly is one way to protect it from becoming sluggish. To check the fan speeds, use a program like Speed Fan.
Your CPU's temperature will also be provided by this program, ensuring that it is not overheated.
Hi @thomas1029, please make an effort to check the dates on a thread before you post. Reviving an old thread like this is called necrobumping, and is generally discouraged.
We had forgotten to set an automatic closing of threads when we created the forum back then. We close all old posts by hand that we find or like here if the user does not pay attention.
Thanks.
The problem will solve itself from the moment we set the automatic function.
Greetings SGS
