Is there anyway to decrease fan noise?

Is there anyway to decrease fan noise?

Its incredibly loud even at low utilization.
Is there anyway to decrease the volume?
If not i probably will just use weaker shaders when i'm not alone.

Is something wrong with my Nvidia 5050???

Why is the benchmark worse than my intel arc 140t?
This is on a new laptop that has both an intel arc 140t and Nvidia 5050.
It was a display model that i got at a discount.

Some people say you need 32gb ram, while others say you need 16 gb of ram. What do you guys recommend.

Some laptops i've been looking at. All that matters is a laptop with a decent screen, dedicated gpu, and is somewhat light. $1000-1200 budget. As long as it can handle 3d modeling software and last 5 years, i'll be happy.

These are my final three options currently. Which is the biggest bang for my buck

Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5 - 2025 ($1300) (Amazon)
- 16" Oled 2880 x 1800 120hz
- 16 gb ram, 1tb ssd
- Rtx 5050
- Intel core ultra 7 255h

Lenovo Ideapad Pro 5 2026 ($1100) (Amazon)
- 16" Oled 2880x1800 120hz
- 16 gb ram, 1tb ssd
- RTX 5050
- AMD-6 Core Ryzen AI 5 340
NOTE: I could pay 100 less, and get it with only 512 gb ssd.

HP omnibook 7 16" ($1100, but it is currently out of stock) (Costco)
- 2k oled 120Hz
- 32 gb ram, 1tb ssd
- RTX 4050
- Intel core ultra 7255H
