    For those of you who have gotten their Studio, how often does the fan come on, how loud is it and how long does it run at a higher audible speed.

    I installed the new Bios released on the 7th but their wasn't any fix for the fan. Also I must say that the system runs VERY cool but I'd rather have it push out warmer air and have the fan running a bit slower.

    EDIT: After comparing it to an HP laptop the fan speed and loudness is very normal. The Studio actually came out a winner comparing the two, pushing out much much cooler air. Both systems had been running all day. Silly remark but making the system run all day would also explain why the fan came on much more often.

    My fan runs at a constant low speed. Slightly warm, not very noisy at all. Kicks into a higher spin when I'm playing games, but only at the start, then goes to a more "medium spin".' Yeah, this doesn't sound very technical at all, but it's my first laptop. :D
