This thing sounds like a jet engine

Bought a vector 16 with the ryzen 9 and 5070ti about a month ago cause it was on sale at walmart and I needed something to game in hotels as I spend quite a bit of time at them. I exclusively game on a (somewhat old now) desktop with an rx6800 and apparently this laptop should give around the same performance.

It doesnt. And it sounds like a mf airplane taking off even as I type this in chrome in a cold ass hotel room in balanced mode.

I benchmarked it using cinebench (I think its fine) and it gets decent framerates in some games (not as good as I though it would) and stutters sometimes - but I will chalk that up to the hotel wifi and give it the benefit of the doubt. Point is I doubt I have a lemon.

I have read about the whole undervolt thing but I really do not have the ball knowledge for all that anymore - I have no clue what I am reading half the time nor how to access it. I am begging for instructions for my laptop processor model - most seem to be intel anyway - so that this thing isnt going 777 takeoff mode while browsing the internet - if that is even possible. I know the reviews said it was loud but this is pretty ridiculous. Any advice is appreciated. I dont mean to get under anyone's skin. Thank you.

On the hunt for a new or used swimbait mold that is between 3-4 inches, cavity count of 8+, single sprue so that i dont have to shoot a million times, and preferably one that can somehow still do laminates. I know FGF makes 2 but one of them is ribbed (not what i want) and the other has too thin of a tail. Any recommendations are helpful, thanks
