    Hi All,

    Just want to know is the heat dissipating mechanism working properly, read through a few reviews on the internet.... however I want to hear from the hands-on owners/users themselves. Does the fan keep on blowing even the notebook is on ideal, just worry with i7 it will eventually burn the machine in long term..

    Thanks

    I have had mine for just over a week, so I can't say anything about long term but I have noticed that the fan only comes on while I am stressing the machine, and the temps seem be ok (CPU is usually around 40-45 C during normal use). Even when the fan does come on it does not seem to be very loud...
