    When the fans run at 100% speed, I'll notice that the RIGHT vent (right side while you're facing the front of the laptop) actually is blowing air out with much more force than the left side. Is that normal? I can feel a steady blow of warm air from the right side, but minimal on the left. Or are they both supposed to blow air at the same rate?

    I hope nothing's wrong with my fans...

    nah, the right one cools the GPU and the left does the CPU. Since the GPU is generally hotter ...
