In most cases, especially with gaming laptops, the fans are working so hard because they need to ventilate the heat that your machine's CPU and GPU are generating. The more demanding the game or processing task you throw at your laptop, the faster its fans have to spin to prevent system-wide overheating.
Sure, the constant whirr of laptop fan noise can detract from gaming experiences, but it's a better solution than suffering through regular crashes owing to an overheated GPU. In a lot of cases, though, noisy laptop fans shouldn't give you sleepless nights.
The best gaming laptops can get obnoxiously noisy when running demanding modern titles. When games like Crimson Desert are putting a lot of strain on both the GPU and CPU, your laptop's fans have to run at high speeds to dissipate heat from these two components.
Like many high-end laptops, the G14 has a Turbo mode that squeezes maximum performance out of modern games, at a loud cost. Unless you play in an FPS-slaying quiet mode, most gaming laptops are going to drum up a whole lot of din.
