    For all people complaing about noise, do undervolting, repaste because compound used by Lenovo is very poor quality, underclock a Little bit (300mhz) and use cooling pad with fan directly blowing air on laptop cooling system

    Without correct distance and a calibrated device this is completely meaningless. I don't mean somewhat useful but not quite correct, I mean utterly useless.

      Daniel hi:) you right if i had a real decibel meter device the video was better, but i dont have one... so i did it with the app, and i think this is very useful for some people, you can hear the fan noise with game and without game, and its very helpful.
