My laptop is always noisy. I added the "balanced" plan but its still screaming,
I also have the Old predator, and it says quite until i change the power plan settings.

    If you have Cool Boost turned on, this can be noisy even during medium loads, although turning it off will yield lower fan noise, it'll increase the avg temps.
    Turbo modes fan noise is pretty much fixed and you can't do much about it.
    Auto mode with whisper profile in Geforce experience  can be helpful although it does come at the cost of performance.
    If your laptop is old, cleaning the fans/vents and re-pasting thermal compound might yield lower temps and hence lower fan speed on auto - low noise.
    But there's definitely a whine that you'll need to get accustomed to at high speeds.
