    My p105 was mostly fine up until the past 2 or 3 weeks, I noticed when I first got it that the GPU fan would rarely ever kick on and it would run pretty hot.But the past 2 or 3 weeks the GPU temps were hitting 120C+.When playing WOW after an hour or so I would get a threshold warning from the nvidia drivers and my card would slow down big time forcing me to exit the game.For some reason the fan would refuse to kick on till I reset the computer then they would kick into high gear till the temps went down.The bios setting was set to perfomance and I tried a couple programs like speedfan and rivatuner but to no avail.Anyways I never had any complaints about the system with the exception of the worlds worst heat/fan management but fortunately I bought my computer from costco and I got a full refund after 4 months.I am buying a W3J to replace it.
