*OFFICIAL* Clevo M57ru FAQ & Owners Lounge

Where did u buy ur comp from? Does it have Artic Silver 5 applied to at already? And also, do you know the revision of its motherboard?

[CpxAzn]

Got it from xotic, I applied mx-2 instead of arctic silver, which is better. The revision is the one before the one they are releasing on monday.

Did you do a clean install on the OS?

Ive tried a clean install of windows xp and windows vista 64bit, and I already have a notebook cooler, no help from that.

Got word from Justin, I'll have my Penryn T9300/8800M/5793 Friday/next Monday

Will hopefully have an exhaustive review (like my 5791 one) before the end of February.

Ok, I made a simple wallpaper (I personally think It sucks, but i did it in like 10 minutes free lunch time I had, for only my school computers have photoshop) 4 the m570ru. I am got at image editing, but I am not very creative . If anyone has any ideas 4 a cool wallpaper, just post and ill see if I could do it.

hkman,

you better get ready to add this to your F.A.Q.:
NP5792 / 5793 Fan Speed Control

Its about time that the M570RU gets a Fan Toggle and gets the fan noise issue remedied (to a point).

With the Fan Toggle, the noise will not be as noticeable if Toggled to Max Speed... which will make a constant sound of air... rather than it being annoying from going on and off (on Auto Speed).

I have mine on at Max Speed all the time, the constant sound just becomes apart of the background, so it does not bother those around me at all (at school, class, library, etc).

And its great for better cooling... especially for those like want to OC.

Now I can say that this notebook is as close to bang for the buck as possible.

i imagine this is going to sound obnoxiously impatient... but how long does it take for xotic to process a secured order (in your experiences)? i know each situation is different and now that i've placed my order i'm antsy for updates. i called in my card number 6 hours ago and haven't seen an update. i realize i'm being antsy and probably unrealistic but i was hoping xotic might order my lappy from sager today so i might get it by the end of next week. =P
