    Not the Clevo BIOS, but the Sager modified BIOS. I e-mailed Sager and they just ignored me. In particular I'd like something that fixes the problem of the fan not shutting down on the GPU (I know you can run afterburner and I do, but a BIOS fix woudl be nice).

    Thanks.

    i emailed them before saying the same thing and asking for the new bios. the rep said the senior engineer told him the fan have to keep on cooling the gpu and this behavior is normal. stupid.
