Envy x360 AMD, Fan very active and on quiet mode

[dgginc]

The only issue I have with this computer is the fan is very active on idle or with limited browsing tasks. I had to set it to quiet mode but the fan still ramps up, though lower speed.  The fans do not emit a low tone but a rather jet plane sound. I think partly for the two fans are close together and they are so thin, the single heat pipe does not help.

I check the CPU temps and they are rather low 60C, but at this temp the fan is very noisy and persistent - even after machine left on standbye, the fan still keeps spinning.  I had to stop using recommended mode, and use quiet mode.  I see the bios is continually being updated to fix the cpu power and fan issue. I think the quite mode should be made quiet though. 

I think the 25watt TDP is not helping, but quite mode should have a lower fan speed.  If better integration is not achieved all the advantages over Intel will be lost once tiger lake comes out.
