/* Airtop3 is producing audible noise, can I reduce it? */
* The main source for this noise are from the power circuits of both the CPU and internal GPU.
*Disabling C-state should reduce noise from the CPU's power circuit, see below instructions:
1. Activate development setup items of the setup menu:
- While in splash screen, press '''[F11]''' (instead of Delete) in the keyboard.
3. Back to the tabs menu (2x '''[Esc]''' button) -> ''''Save & Exit'''' tab -> ''''Save Changes And Exit'''' -> ''''Yes''''.
* Using a Discrete GPU should naturally reduce the noise from the internal GPU power circuitbut there's also additional configurations that can be done from the development setup menu that may help:* Changing1. Enter the development setup menu: - While in splash screen, press ['''F11'''].. - Go to ''''Advanced'''' tab -> ''''Setup items availability'''' -> Choose ''''Development''''.2. In ''''Advanced'''' tab -> ''''Power & Performance'''' -> ''''GT - Power Management Control'''' -> Change the two options below: - ''''RC6(Render Standby)'''' -> ''''Disabled'''' - ''''Disable Turbo GT frequency'''' -> ''''Enabled''''3. Keeping the C-states disabled: - In ''''Advanced'''' tab -> ''''Power & Performance'''' -> ''''CPU -Power Management Control'''' -> ''''C states'''' -> Choose ''''Disabled''''4. Back to the tabs menu (2x ['''ESC'''] button) -> ''''Save & Exit'''' tab -> ''''Save Changes And Exit'''' -> ''''Yes''''.
