fan very noisy when i start any browser

VecchiaZimarra · 2023-03-16 15:28:17

Hello everyone,

since since I upgraded the kernel 6.2.6 i noted the fan becomes really noisy when i start any browser cause an escalation of cpu memory. I suppose that this problem, can concern in some way the gpu drivers.

how can i check what exactly produce this temperature rise so i can fix it?

tnx

Hi,

maybe some more information would help? What gpu you are using? What processor? Which driver did you use for your gpu?

VecchiaZimarra · 2023-03-17 12:40:25

Txn for reply.

my gpu is AMD Radeon R5

driver: amdgpu

CPU: AMD PRO A6-8500B R5, 6 Compute Cores 2C+4G (2) @ 1.6 GHz

If the CPU load goes up, it's the CPU - you'll also see which process is the cause.

"Any browser" is not a thing.
Which one(s) exactly?

the cpu goes in overheating at the start of many process (so the lap became noisy)
chromium, firefox, pacman, yay, xorg

The fan can be noisy if the bearing broke.

at the start of many process

Yes, but what process does consume the CPU?

chromium

Also when you start "firefox, pacman, yay, xorg"

When i build my PC, i had something similar. I opened a browser or something other heavy and the fans keep spinning up for 1 or 2 seconds.
If you open up chromium or something else, it this the behavior or does the fans not go back to a lower rpm?

I solved my issue in the UEFI. My AMD 3700x Processor, in combination with my asus rog motherboard has the CPU throttling about 1 second.
So evertime i load chrome the fans goes up for 1 to 2 seconds and come then down. This has something to do with the cpu temperature.
I changed this to 3 seconds an now, everything is fine. Maybe something like this could be the issue?

Thanks Congo for the answer. I think it's a gpu driver issue. In fact when I boot from usb stick with Manjaro cpu doesn't overheat. My GPU is an amd radeon R5 with amdgpu driver

Please post your complete system journal for the boot:

sudo journalctl -b | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

Please post your Xorg log, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xorg#General

here the log

Edit your post and wrap that in code tags. Or just link the 0x0.st url.

Are you running multiple network managers? (Network manager, dhcpcd, etc). Please post the output of

find /etc/systemd -type l -exec test -f {} \; -print | awk -F'/' '{ printf ("%-40s | %s\n", $(NF-0), $(NF-1)) }' | sort -f

Edit - I did not mean to imply that running multiple network managers could cause a noisy fan, but they might cause additional problems.

OP is (at least) running NM, dhcpcd and an extra wpa_supplicant service (so that's bad) but chromium also frequently crashes in

Post the output of

localectl
locale
locale -a

And see whether

killall chromium; sleep 10; chromium --disable-gpu

causes the same "fan noise"

Sorry for not replying sooner, if you're asked to fix a post w/ no further comment, it's ok to also bump the thread to signal that it's now readable.
Also keep in mind that while this might be some software/config issue that causes overly high CPU/GPU use, "fan noise" itself is typically a HW issue and usually related to D.U.S.T.
