Yes bro, i do agree your machine is nice but to make it lifespan longer i think u should consider to have a nice cooler (cooler master) should be good. try hunt at garage sale.. someone selling it with good price.

Btw not hot for you doesn mean not hot for the internal parts, get a cooler hopefully can make it idle stay below <50C.


Cheers.

Since your lappy soo small i think u better get this (CoolerMaster NotePal 12" to 15"- RM95)

Made from aluminium and if not mistaken NotePal cooler come with very high RPM fan. Beside cool down ur machine, it lift your machine higher so it easier to type smile.gif

v3000 , i think tis model no suite for F9s coz the fan on the upper part which face to the battery location oni.... F9s need a cooler on the middle part 1 or mayb terbalik the cooler pad to use  tongue.gif  coz the HDD alwaz hot ^^

and thinkpad disadvantage is dun have dvd rom=.= coz too thin edi.... not enof spaces for it.... haiz
*
Ah sorry recommend wrong 'stuff'.. i also dont know how they design the Asus F9 sweat.gif
Ya, the drawback to have Thinkpad X series is the lappy itself only come with 3 usb ports, no touchpad and no dvd rom.. but u sacrifice this to have a very durable ultraportable <1.5kg lappy brows.gif

Bro u turn on your lappy (on ambient temp room) then leave it idle for 10min then click on the TAT program and read the temp state there (core 0 & core 1)

Bro when u leave it idle for 10min most of the program* gone into sleep same goes to ur processor (deep sleep) with your santa processor. While they all 'sleeping' u can get lower idle temp.. if it stay at 60C, bro i think u better sent it back to service center.. (60C on idle is something i call MAD lappy)

*Please temporary turn off your Anti virus tongue.gif
^My lappy have 87 process on background

Im sorry bro, i dont mean to make u sad on ur purchase. Me, myself plan to get 1 of this (Asus F9s) for my gf bday gift (as her lappy ageing already)
But when it come to temp matter, im very sensitive with it (hot machine keen to have shorter lifespan).. and feel very very uncomfortable when use on lap and make our bed hot! NO GOOD!

I suggest that is the temp maintain >60C, bro better sent it back to their service center to check it (But its good to get respond from other user 1st, this is what forum used for smile.gif)

Cheers, hopr to hear good news from u guys! icon_rolleyes.gif

Bro, just get a good cooler that can suck the hot air... i think any good brand (with HIGH fan spin speed) will do the job well!

Bout the partation.. just delete all the partation then create it again. This time only create 1, but for me i think partation is good, example.. i can put all my files into 2nd partation so when i format my machine i wont lost all my doc..
