So my laptop becomes extremely loud when playing youtube videos and watching netflix. The sound becomes even more louder when my charger is plugged in. When I'm surfing the web it seems to be fine. Any way i could reduce the fan noise? Thanks

In terms of the laptop fan -- probably NOT.  When I do video streaming, all my laptop cores jump up to nearly 100% and the fan runs very loud.  That is the load that streaming puts on a laptop and that is just what happens.

 

If you got one of those laptop cooling pads with builtin fans, that might help by drawing heat away from the laptop, but there is no guarantee that will work.

Also, sometimes it would make a strange beeping noise which lasts for about 0.5 to 1 seconds which is strange as I don't know where it is coming from. My laptop is an older model from 2016, so i'm just wondering if it's normal for my laptop to make this much noise because obviously newer range laptops are much more quieter and you can hardly hear any noise coming from them. I just don't know if there's something wrong with it?
