Put my ear to models on display and running to find a quieter one

Make sure to put a load on the machine while testing. I recommend streaming video (YouTube, Vimeo, etc.).... If the fan ramps up under load, you'll know it quickly. Idle noise is one thing, but having a fan spin up is entirely another.

You are right; load does make for fan running. But I always invoke the Inverse Square Law http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse-square_law The great thing is it never fails and no batteries are required. _________________ Esse quam videri "To be rather than to seem" www.SaVoa.org No. 07000 Member AES
