    Everything is great, except the fans were too intense for me. I'm used to the Dell pc whine.

    I don't game that much, so it wasn't worth keeping it for the video card. I still recommend it for people who game a lot and are used to the sound. There are some video recording the sounds in the forums, that is exactly what mine sounded like.

    Can you post a link of the sound please? Thanks. And were you able to use programs to control the fan speed? I've seen friends do that...

    yeah ... looking for the videos.

    I didn't want to use the programs to control fan speed because I was afraid I'd mess up the computer.

    I called to check on my order and the CSR sounded like he was trying to do an impression of Borat but failed horribly.

    and apparently my boxing will take until Oct 9th.
