    Has anyone tried the 9800 M GTS and the 260m gtx gateway fx? I asked this because my p7801u 9800m gts has huge fan noise even when I am just browsing the web. Does the 260m have this issue?

    My 9800m GTS fan is blowing 24/7 annoyingly, and most of the time it is blowing cold air. I guess it's a Gateway thing then.
