Fan Noise HP ZBook 15 G6

[bert23]

I have this laptop for a few months now,

and tried some bios tweaks and os settings, but nothing seems to help.

The fan is quite noisy most of the time, also during normal not intensive usage.

This laptop has a i9 and 64GB of RAM, the OS is debian buster.

For example at this moment:

load average: 1,81; 2,30; 2,14  which a  low load for laptop that should be able to handle a load of 16

MiB Mem : 63728,4 total, 58354,7 free,

Throttling the cpu to for example 90% or lower does not seem a lot

The hottest measurement is

pch_cannonlake-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1: +78.0°C

which is the typically between 75 and 85 degrees just after booting and while working,

cpu are mostly below 50, sometimes between 50 and 60.

Both usb-c ports are in use

Do you have bios or OS suggestions?

Hello,

also having the exact same Problem, fan is kicking of constantly, even without much load. In case there are some Task to do the fan accelerates to an unacceptable Level, at least within an Office with coworkers.

I hope this is just a firmeware / software configuration issue
