how quiet are your fans on G75?

[ben02]

how quiet should the fans be on idle?

i ask because i just got a G75 and it's simply AWESOME in every way except there's a clear, sharp, "musical" humming tone from the fans all the time. one minute soft (CPU fan on, always), another minute loud (GPU fan also turns on, every minute). and it's driving me silly lol...can't read, write, think. i'm writing this on an old (quieter) lappy.
possibly unrelated, but there's also a small metal thing rolling around inside (more to the left/CPU side). something loose?

temps seem ok according to hwinfo64:
Idle: CPU 37 C, 2000 rpm constantly / GPU 37 C, cycling between off and 2000 rpm
Heavy load: CPU 68 C, 3000 rpm constantly / GPU 55 C, 2600 rpm constantly

fan filters were ok. rotating the laptop didn't help. didn't find any drivers/BIOS that turns fan off while idle. i don't know what else to try.
so i'm wondering is this normal? what do your laptops sound like? do people have silent fans? what's the noise distribution among ASUS users? (because i thought ASUS was famous for its quietness.) or does everyone have a little meditating guy under the keyboard humming? please help! thanks

My G55vw is so quiet that I was beginning to wonder if my fans were even working...lol. But with the temps as low as they are (around 40c on cpu and gpu at all times) they must be.

They do. The G-series laptops are so big because of the gigantic heatsinks that they have, which make it easier for the fans to work without needing to be as noisy. My idles temps are in the 40's C and 60's C while gaming.

The fans on my G74SX are so quiet, I can hear my dog blink when she's in the next room!

Thank you! Thank you! I'll be here all week...

Mine only gets noticible after a period of high cpu usage.

Mine are very quiet I never hear them

If I ever hear them I'll let you know how loud they are.

Feel free to read my thread here, http://rog.asus.com/forum/showthread.php?28993-G75-fan-speed-rpm/page2

And for all you who say your fans is whisper queit, stop it.. your lying, the g75vw is pretty loud, or atleast you hear it good in idle. My cpu is on 2000rpm in idle and gpu goes beetween 2000-2600rpm in idle, depends on what temperature the gpu is at.

So ye it makes some noise, its not whisper queit as some people say. Trolls.

Unless you've been sitting next to my G75 you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
