  • Tuning capacitor noise - In some scenarios, capacitors on high power switching regulators have high frequency noise. We’re adjusting both the capacitor count and swapping the necessary ones out to low-noise capacitors.

    I’m very glad they’re paying attention to this. High-frequency whines are infuriating. My old Dell XPS 15 9560 had whines of different frequencies for the CPU, GPU, SSD, and power supply. (On the plus side, I’ve learned to tell where system is bottlenecked just based on the sound…)
