    My laptop (in signature)

    Ok, so when the fan on the left starts up, it makes a little "BRRING" sound, and goes high, low, high, then sits at the normal speed...
    is this normal???


    And my load temps are:
    CPU: 42c
    GPU: 80c

    yeah thats normal. The GPU temp is a little high, but its within acceptable range. Might want to get a cooler or prob the back.

    Lol that is really normal but it really gets irritating. Heck just buy a small power fan at costco or something then lift the back of your laptop and then make your fan breeze anywhere near your laptop.
