Dont know, but I rather have the fan died first rather than any part of my lappy, especially the GPU and CPU

Wat is fanbug? Can i know how u tweak it?
Can u tweak the fan run 5500RPM all the time?

But, my HP pavilion laptop 40C++ only.
Feel abit worry and wonder how durable is this laptop.

Dont ever compare 3K laptop with sub 2K laptop for god's sake. U get wat u pay for.

Get real.

what's is atk 0100? Shall i need donwload & install 5 ATK driver? Thanks

yes.. the atk drivers are needed.. they are the drivers for ur fn keys.. jus install the drivers listed from the website..

you means all 5 driver listed on website?

jus install the files listed there. no big fuss..case settle

Newsflash! I bought a few resistor at Jalan Pasar today after Friday prayer to lower the fan voltage, lower voltage = lower speed if you dont know.

I found 10 ohm is enough to make it quiet, but its still a bit slower than I wanted so I parallel 10 ohm with 20 ohm resistor to get 6.67 ohm and now the voltage is 3.89V instead of 5.09V (the onboard fan connector is somewhere at 1.XXV region if I remember correctly). Even with single 10 ohm is a lot faster than onboard fan voltage

Picture of the paralled resistor on the lappy, a bit messy since I dont cut the extra legs, but its ok as long as its not shorted somehwere, I use cello tape

najmods..u really crazy mod lar..wad u study d?electronic?

i get the calculation parts.. but thats some very crazy mod..

No, you should read where I 'from'
<----
I have little background in electronics, but I like to discover things and from year 2007 I 'discovered' audiophilia and learn electronics from there, from not knowing what are opamp, now I can create my own circuits for analog out of my soundcard

This is basic electronics, just a resistor to limit the voltage and apply Ohm's Law but the fan dont have any sticker about how much amps it uses I just guess the value, resistor at Jalan Pasar for 1/4W is 10cent each . Everyone at least knows this, its just a matter to do or not to do

need a ammeter or voltmeter or maybe multimeter to calculate the voltage??

lolz.. pasar malam resistors.. dangerous.. lolz.. ur k40ab is seriously a lab rat for u.. hahaa.

I use multimeter to measure the voltage. I dont do the math, I just bought the resistor by instinct Its not pasar malam, its jalan pasar Everything is my experiment, I learn stuff by practice, you should see what have I done to my soundcard, graphics card and headphones

hahaa. yeah.. would like to see that seriously.. hahaa.. ur crazy eh.. haha..

oo u buy the resistor at Jalan Pasar at which shop??

Some of my stuff, my headphones, and my old 9600XT graphics card

You can bought at any shop, I bought at Darson

EDIT: My final fan mod, its unbelivably tidy, I put the resistor on top of the wireless card but I put some tapes to prevent it make a contact and put a piece of paper to prevent it from shorting with the backpanel aluminium foil

Sorry guys, am looking forward to get k40AB but currently in SG there is this SITEX promotion going on for F83T, $998 with free upgrade of 4GB and Windows 7.

http://www.bootstrike.com/itfairsg/sitex20...ochure-leaflet/

Need you guys advise.

neo single core = underpowered

That thing uses Athlon Neo, for extended battery life but of course lower performance, k40AB is way better. Weird, if they wanted to use low voltage CPU for more battery life why use HD4570 GPU? What is this laptop for when k40AB is here?

AMD's temporary solution to CULV's perhaps?
gaming/battery life on the go

lol..i would rather top up for the UL80Vt/50 series. G210m is not bad too
