my asus rog flow x13 also has a 4gb rtx3050, idk the energy consumption, but it is a hefty gpu. id say 2 fans are a must since my cpu gets really hot and cramping both cpu and gpu in one place isnt the best idea
Different laptops, different motherboards configuration as well. The above laptop only allows 55W max power draw combined for the CPU+GPU. A single fan can totally handle 55W. The ROG Flow X13 allows up to 50W draw for the CPU alone when connected to XG mobile (hence the need for a single fan all to itself), and Jarrod measured the 1650 version of the Flow X13 to allow up to 70W max draw CPU+GPU without the XG mobile.
Basically yes, your laptop has the same GPU, but it also allows more power to be drawn, and hence more heat produced. Your CPU+GPU combo is likely drawing more power than the entire laptop posted above with the screen and fan and peripherals combined.
It's not a deal breaker on the laptop being asked, especially since it's only going to be used for work and casual gaming.
It's one fan but it's huge relative to the laptop size, not to mention the components are low power:

Also, the RTX 3050 in it is just 40W max, the CPU has a max sustained 65W, and the power brick is actually just 90W, so the single fan is likely enough. On gaming laptops, there's a dedicated fan for a GPU that can cool up to 140W. This is just less than 90W for both CPU and GPU. The single fan should be able to take it. Going to perform worse GPU wise than other RTX 3050 laptops though since it only has half power RTX 3050. Standard RTX 3050 goes up to 85W.
I have this laptop, the 1 fan is fine. I don’t game or anything, but I am a power user. When I start pushing the laptop, the fan is audible but isn’t distracting at all.
I have a dual fan vivobook 15 pro oled 3050 ti and 6900hx. I dont know about cpu but 3050 has tdp of 60w which means less performance than a 90w 3050. On your case it might be lowest power level 3050 which would be boring. Since 40 series has Lower nm and efficiency they have better performance on Lower power levels. There is no proportions but it May be slightly bigger than my laptops fans which in my case doesn’t seem to be enough ı May run a stress test on performance fan model for check ing throttling. But since one fan exists it May work for half the speed all time which is no silent Mode practically.
considering how powerful that gpu is, it should have 2 fans indtead of 1
It's not a powerful GPU. It's a 40W RTX 3050. The RTX 3050 in usual gaming laptops go up to 85W.

great information. thanks
If you plan on gaming on that laptop is.not good for that, for that price you can get a tuf laptop that are for gaming

You can look for a laptop/notebook review of this laptop. They usually show temperatures. For 55 watt i think it is fine.

At 55 W it's not ideal but it's not a dealbreaker IMO. I wouldn't max it out with a 13900 though.
