    The laptop I have in my signature is good, but the fan keeps going off too often even when i'm just web browsing. undervolting, copper shims, arctic silver doesn't work or hep it, once it hits 42C it'll start the fan.

    So i'm thinking about going with this MSI laptop that's on sale for $690 AR. http://www.jr.com/msi-microstar/pe/...are&SiteID=*7WaaTN6umc-DxqmBqRbWYCdttrAngEsxw

    Since it has a dedicated graphics card, i'm worried about the cooling issue and the fan going off since I also have a dedicated Radeon 4570 graphics in my current laptop.

    Does anyone have a diagram of the cooling system for that MSI laptop?
