Yep. But it also depends on the model. Some PCs are louder than laptops and v.v.

My Current PC Codename: Scrapper

If you put the Quietest PC vs the Quietest Laptop with the same Gaming Specs the Laptop will be louder due to the smaller heatsinks which means the fans have to spin quicker no matter what.

Generally, yes.

However, the loudness of PC depends on the fans users buy/use.

While laptops depend on manufacturer. (unless the user is willing to take the laptop apart)

Theoretically, with the same fans and specs, a laptop would need to blow harder (and therefore louder) than a PC due to space constraint.

Pseudo-theory for fun, you usually sit farther from a PC case than a laptop!

My desktop is loud. I've had gaming notebooks just as loud, but those were like 2007 models. Newer gaming notebooks are much quieter.
