Hmmm, what should I say?

Pentium4 desktop CPU + Laptop = heat

heat = too much fan noise.

Wait 2-3 years and you think like me. click me

Forget the price of a laptop. You save on the wrong place, if you buy an laptop without Centrino or Thurion CPU.

Welcome to the forum,
I thought Seb was so cool just touching his lappie would chill it dude. Go to your power management and select 'adaptive' for the CPU but I reccommend you leave the fan on 'performance' as it is better to have noise that a cooked CPU.:smileygrin:

I have a K115Z and I use Speedswitch to control CPU speed which keeps the temperature and fan under control.

Download it here - SpeedswitchXP

I keep mine set on adaptive unless I am converting video to DVD in which case I lock it on performance - saves lots of time.

I know of no disadvantages, only improvements - lower operating temperatures and hopefully longer processor life,and less noise.

I am pleased it has helped.

I don't think you get commission if they've already bought it :tongue: but that's a trick I'm definitely going to try...
