These things whine like crazy when they spin up, even at low speed and it's driving me crazy! Has anybody successfully changed out the fans in any Razer Blade?

What about the fan sound? Well at my unit it is not really rattling.
But do you only hear the airflow from the fans or do you also hear the the fan motors / fan blades rotating?
Here I tried to record the hum in the background of the airflow.

So if your unit sounds like mine...maybe that is the normal sound for the fans of a RB?

So what do you plan to do?
I would replace the fan (it`s only the right one for me) but you would have to remove the headsink for it. And I do not want to do that. And where to get a new fan from? -
Are there any aftermarket laptop fans that are built to run quieter?

More about PWM
Basically based on the fanspeed you create an audio curve because frequency modulation. -

DC controlled is fairly rare the past years as far as I know but could be wrong about that. I only opened Razer, Alienware, Dell, MSI, Acer, Apple and Gigabyte laptops the past 5 years. You can recognize them by the 4 instead of 3 wires.amihail91 likes this. -
Figure out how to fit MacbookPro fans in and zero whine/whistle
It comes down to quality, plain and simple, not PWM vs DC.

Thicker fan blades will naturally create lower frequency sounds.. Thin laptops tends to have high-pitched, whiny fans due to the lower density but Apple gets around this with using asymmetrical fans.. Not sure why other makers don't make this a requirement. A company like Razer just goes for the cheapest fan options. Same with Dell, HP, etc. I haven't heard of any other make as quiet as Apple fans.. -

Macbook Pros get loud yes under loud but it's not a high pitched/annoying tone.. it's a deeper woosh sound, which is far less annoying.amihail91 likes this. -
