If Cooler Boost is on, core temperatures would drop by about 8 C each.
Running Prime95 and FurMark simultaneously would result in stable CPU and GPU temperatures of 82 C and 70 C, respectively. Enabling Cooler Boost mode would result in just very minor changes to CPU clock rates and temperature. Thereafter, clock rates would steadily fall and stabilize at the 3.2 to 3.4 GHz range in order to maintain a slightly cooler core temperature of 85 C. When running Prime95 to stress the processor, CPU clock rates would boost to 4 GHz until hitting a core temperature of 88 C about 20 seconds later. It's a massive increase in fan noise for not all that much performance gain as our Stress Test section below will detail. If Cooler Boost (i.e., maximum fan mode) is enabled, fan noise will jump immediately to 57.2 dB(A) regardless of onscreen load. This is quieter than what we recorded on the older GP65 while being on par with the latest Alienware m15 R4, Aorus 15P, and Asus ROG Zephyrus G15 each with RTX 30 graphics. It's enough to be noticeable but not particularly bothersome.įan noise when gaming will hover around 48.8 dB(A) with no pulsing or erratic RPM behavior. We're able to record a noise of 32.8 dB(A) when web browsing or video streaming against a silent background of 24.7 dB(A). However, even a slight increase in CPU utilization will kickstart the CPU fan and so the laptop will not be truly silent under most real-world scenarios. The fans will idle when the laptop is idling on desktop with no other active programs.
