I've just applied maximum cooling on mine (no Cool Master), and It's running at 4.7 RPM.

Spoiler:

If I slot In the Cool Master cooling fan, It'll probably hit over 5.5k.

Ok little update. My laptop with the charger, i7 Idles 50 Celsius flat, no dipping or spiking. Without charger, idles at 30 Celsius. The charger gives this thing a massive performance boost. Like it is so noticeable. In fact a similar issue regarding this. My laptop is laggy at times even with basic tasks until the charger is plugged in. Is there any way to balance this? Power management in the control panel is not doing anything. It almost seems like the charger gives the hardware it's proper power input.

Do you've already created a custom power plan (High performance) to no avail?

Yeah nothing much changes. I mean this thing feels too powerful for it's own good. I will say the charger is a requirement for games. I can start a game like STALKER Call of Pripyat wiith no charger. 30fps. I plug in Charger, 300+ FPS, Brightness goes up, Fans Kick In, my NVIDIA 1050ti starts rolling, and my cpu turns into a molotov cocktail lmao!

Boot Into the BIOS and have a look under Power management/Power options (or some variant).

See If there's a CPU power configuration. Next to each setting, there will be the option to enable/disable and/or create a custom setting. Some BIOS manufacturers also have a battery calibration, so check that out too.

Yeah the power management section wasn't much help in that regard. However I found a setting called Turboboost, which may play a role in the exponential peformance increases I am getting. I guess I should embrace this lappy's toasty personality. Haha, a nice cooling pad and some modifications I have planned will make this interesting. I want to utilize the Thunderbolt Port and attach an external GPU. That could get intersting.

If you've exhausted all options natively, I believe the cooling pad Is the way to go.

What's the make & model of your lappy?

Actually, what if I disabled Turbo Boost in the bios? Will that fix the issue? Because from what I've heard Turbo Boost is unnecessary.
