Any comments on the fan noise? Is it constantly spinning and can be heard ?

fan is spinning all the time but it's verry quiet, you can't hear it unless you go with your ear 5cm in front of the fangrill. With 100% CPU load you cant hear the fan either but you hear the airflow sound which is verry nice low herz sound. The fan itself really don't do wierd squeeze or other high frequenzy noise. Besides the speakers are really outstandig, it has really base, it is a verry clear sound and verry loud. The Dell 7447 Pandora sound pulverise the sound of a Asus Rog G55-VW (until now the Asus Rog G55-VW was my personal reference for laptops max 15.6inch.

Most important, it is upgradeable to 16 GB (2x8GB) 2133Mhz.
I am running Kingston HyperX Impact Black 16GB Kit (2x8GB) 2133MHz DDR3L SODIMM 1.35V (HX321LS11IBK2/16),
Timings CL-11 tRCD-12 tRP-13 tRAS-35 CR-2 tRFC-278
The HyperX Kit is verry stable, benchmarks provide always a verry verry similar score, so well quality Ram. Attached is a Screenshot from 8GB original 1600 vs 16GB HyperX 2133
Maybe the Corsair Venegance Performance 16GB Kit (2x8GB) 2133 Mhz DDR3L SODIMM 1.35V fits as well,

Thanks for the feedback. A noisy laptop can be quite irritating at times. I also read that its a fingerprint magnet? Is this true?

Bought the i5 version because it was cheap RM2.5k. Updated to w10 (Clean install), no problem so far smile.gif.
Gaming was brilliant (mostly played LoL on maximum setting) FPS can get around 110++

Quite satisfied but is it normal for my temps everyday use to reach maximum of 55c?
the laptop never go , for constant under 44c unless its on idle.

For gaming , the temps are fine. I'm concerned on my everyday use activities.

Any thoughts?

I think this CPU has a higher watt consumption (performance) so should be normal.
