    Has anyone installed this? Strange how they call it X56 instead of A17.

    They do call it A17 after it's downloaded (L702XA17).

    Ya, I saw that. I never really had the fan issues or any issues for that matter. My L702X has ran great from the start. I did download the A17 BIOS, but haven't noticed any changes or issues.
