Hey everyone,
I bought a laptop recently. HP dv6t-7000 with i7 quad core, GT 650M, 8 GB ram and a 160 gb SSD.
I bought it directly from HP and it shipped to my home on June 7th. I live in a fairly loud apartment (4 roommates) so I guess I didn't really notice how loud the fan was or wasn't initially but now that I'm home for the summer I'm noticing that the fan is "always on."
I don't really know much about laptops but I don't know if this is normal or not. I wouldn't say the fan is loud or bothersome but it's definitely noticeable. I don't remember if this is how loud its always been but now that I have my own room and its quiet most of the time I can really notice the laptop fans.
My question is: is this normal or should I return it? I wish I could accurately give a description of how loud it is. It's not really loud in the traditional sense (I imagine) but it's like a constant stream. I'm not using any intensive applications by the way just surfing the internet.
Hoping someone could help me out. Thanks
