Yes, did all that! There was nothing running that should've caused any workload. We tried various tweaks, but unfortunately they all had no effect. The vendors support couldn't really figure out what was the problem either, but found it just as odd as we did.

Yea I feel like Windows is making it even ten times worse... I didn't test it with linux unfortunately! One guess would have been that Windows 11 is the issue, but I didn't dare to install Windows 10 in fear of losing the right to return it (not much of an expert in that field haha). I just find it a bit weird, my old Asus (Win10) gets loud easily too, but there I am able to throttle it down to stay quiet if I only need it for office work. With the new notebooks none of those tweaks had any effect, sadly (except for Windows becoming a slideshow...)

Thanks for the reply! We've done some benchmark tests with hwinfo, which confirmed the higher frequencies.

But it's great to know that there are new models out there that don't have such a big issue with that. May I ask what notebook you were using?

I'm glad, you're welcome!

Thank you!! I've mostly used the same textured brush to paint it. For this one I actually started with a black and white sketch to get the values/lighting approximately how I wanted, then painted over it with colors!

I rarely count hours honestly, but it does take a pretty long time :') especially with this one, since I had a different background at first! And by now my neck hurts all the time hahah
