    Hm another question that might be related, can any of you actually FEEL the airflow of the CPU exhaust? I mean when the GPU fan goes up to tornado I can clearly feel it but thats not the case with the CPU! There is airflow, I once held a hair to the exhaust to detect it, but it is really weak IMO...

    yes same here i'm thinking if not bigger fins then better fan. I really hope its just a fan that way we wouldn't have to send our systems in.
