Why is My Steam Deck Fan So Loud?
Your Steam Deck fan might be loud because it's trying to keep the device cool, especially during intense gaming sessions. You could try using it in a cooler environment or check if there's any dust buildup that needs cleaning.

It's probably running loud because it's working hard to cool down the internals. Make sure you're not blocking any vents and consider using a cooling pad.
Have you tried closing any unnecessary applications or lowering the game settings? Less workload means less heat and a quieter fan.
Hot take: It's just a normal thing for powerful handheld devices. If you want power, you'll have to live with a bit of noise.
