    ok i got my sony sa. i need help with decision. i love the machine but its gets rediculously loud.

    is there a bios or something that will calm the fans down? its rediculous from sony for there higher end laptops to do this.

    i need help. should i keep my sony SA 2620m + 6630m that loud when at load or get a asus u46sv with 2410m/2520m + 540m with hell of a lot less noise? the 2520 variant aint available yet. The u46sv only has 768p but that ok cos my x120e is same resolution meanin i cn max games better a native.

    So more processor power and noise (40-47db) or less processor power and less noise (under 40db....maybe around 37-39 peak).
    (for the record i do own the sony with the 2410m so both configs for the SA is loud either way)

    i could handle it if when it starts getting audiable. but then its when the gpu is constant it just gets dead loud which i get is the 47db and it gets loud FAST!!!
