Is it normal that the cpu vent at the side doesnt blow hard like the gpu fans at hard loads?

I have the predator helios 300 (2019) that ive got this january, so far the gaming experience is very good and i already undervolted it to reduce temperature while maintaining my fps. So the issue is, is it normal that the cpu fans doesnt blow as the same as how the gpu fans blows at games and heavy loads? the cpu vents at the sides doesnt feel strong compare to the gpu

    Zpree yes its normal depending on each game the gpu will always heat a bit more than the cpu if you leave it on auto coolboost on as it should be the fans will run according to each temps youre fine  unless your temps go over 85'ish cpu and 70/75 gpu max its all fine if they go way over those numbers  you would need either to get acer to repaste it or repaste it yourself with kryonaut or similar if you can without voiding your warranty

    Happy gaming :)
