    I recommend you to look in the machine's owner's lounge. There is a lot of info there.

    To my recollection, I haven't seen any either at all. I looked a bit a few days ago out of curiosity but I couldn't find any yet.

    I should be receiving mine with the i5 CPU and gtx 965m tomorrow. If youre still interested, in a few days I can let you know about temps and noise. I assume it will be cooler than the intel i7 with gtx 970/980m options because it uses less voltage.

    I would expect no issues either, it will be a very similar setup just with a cooler running chip in it.
