Alienware 17 fan issue
Hello! I bought an Alienware 17 and got it yesterday. I'm extremely satisfied! I love this system! Although it takes time getting used to the new UI of Windows 8, I really enjoy my time using the Alienware. However, I have a question regarding the fans....
While using the laptop for heavy tasks, I only feel air being circulated by the left fan and not the right and seeing as I spent $3000 on this laptop, I want to make sure everything is in working proper order. I was wondering if this is normal or if this is a malfunction in my hardware. I haven't gamed yet on this for more than ten minutes straight, but still when the left fan is on, the right one isn't. I haven't seen the right fan ventilate air even once yet! So I was wondering if the right fan automatically turns on after there's a certain amount of load on the Processors or if this is a real problem.
Please reply soon please!
