Razer Blade 15 2020 loud fans

Same issue here. Not sure what is going on. 3 co-workers have the Razer Blade 2019 and theirs are whisper quiet. I noticed that if I switch from balanced to custom and then backed to balanced in synapse, the fan rpms will drop. Seems like a software bug to me.

I've been having the same issue as of yesterday evening. I've had the laptop for a few months now and it was working perfectly fine. But, for some unknown reason, last night when I opened up a game to play with my boyfriend, it started whirring and making a really scary buzzing sound. So I told my bf I'd be right back and I restarted the laptop. That didn't help a bit. It's even been getting worse. And now it randomly goes off when I'm just browsing the internet or sitting on Discord. I'm scared to open games now because I know the fan already starts going off when I open games, but I'm scared that if I were to try to play one now it would blow my entire laptop out or something. I tried manually playing with the fan settings, but it did close to nothing. I'll keep trying, though. Hopefully, Razer will fix this bug, if it is a software issue. I just ordered a compressed can of air off of Amazon earlier today, and I really don't want to have to try to find a place that will look at my computer for me during a pandemic ):

This seems like a different (more serious) issue than what I am dealing with. This sounds like your fans might be hitting something or one of the bearings is going bad. Mine is just constant high-pitched (normal?) fan noise when idling.

Hi everyone! Thanks for posting your Razer Blade's concern here. Please perform the following and see if it helps:

a. Tweak the fan settings under the Razer Synapse 3.0's performance tab.
b. You can also try to reduce system load by closing background programs that you are not using. Make sure to save any unsaved work in those programs.
c. Close any processes that may be slowing your system. Just note that some processes may be essential to your system running smoothly and closing them may make your system unstable. We advise you to research this. Please check the steps below:

• Right-clicking your Start button and selecting “Task Manager”.
• Under the “Processes” tab, you may close any processes and look them up on the internet for more information. To close that process, right-click then select “End task”.

Should the above steps did not resolve the issue, please perform a system recovery. Else, you can submit a case by clicking this link or send me a PM.

This last answer definitely doesn't answer the problem... There is a bug. I'm experiencing exactly the same as other users here with no process running

That's why were are isolating the issue, mate. Have you contacted our Support Team or submitted a case? Feel free to send me a PM so I can help assist you.

Thanks. As much as I love the machine, if we don't find a solution until September 25 I have to send it back.

I just returned mine, as I do not have the time to deal with this.

I appreciate that razer support trying to help, and I do not blame you. I do however blame synapses software

you need to really rework it:

its very heavy-handed takes time to start up, and not snappy to use
the interface is very cluttered, it should not show so many things that most people do not want to use, at least give the option of disabling them.
this bug which causing so many frustration and returns.
lastly, give people some control over power limits and fan speeds!

i had the same issue. i have no idea why, but inside of razer synapsse - perfomance, the fan speed was set on manual. i change it to auto. silence!

I'm glad that switching the fan speed to automatic resolved the fan noise. Please monitor your laptop's fan and check if the issue reoccurs.

Hey everyone! Please let me know if settings the fan speed to auto helped the laptop to reduce/resolve its noise concern.

Same here!! Synapse keeps switching my fan back to manual high and it gets noisy as hell.

For info I had my machine replaced and now it's working like a charm...

I still have all these problems!
I've seen in other threads people having better luck with the laptop unplugged or disconnecting external monitors but in my case, no matter what I do, the fans are VERY loud.

For info... discovered I had faulty battery - it was bulging a lot and deforming the case and preventing the mouse pad from being clicked. Since removing the battery, Synapse is no longer forcing my fan into Manual High each time I boot. Maybe it's to protect from thermal overload.

I would be glad to hear about the official fix then!!
I used this software to improve the situation after days without any answer...
