Uncheck Setup > Playback Engine > Intel Turbo Boost.

If you need more than that there is lots of discussion about this in the past on DUC... you can find that with a good search using the site: duc.avid.com qualifier.

If you have fan noise problems in general, not only w/PT, I can recommend a utility called Turbo Boost Switcher that sits in your menu bar, and lets you turn TB on/off manually. There's a free version, does the job.

Cheers, the noise is only when using my new Pro Tools version
