Laptop fan never goes under 1900 RPM?

So, I got a fairly new laptop - a month old. Asus ROG G771JM.
Starting a couple of days ago, the CPU fan *seems* slighty louder. Nothing extraordinary, but noticeable. HWMonitor says the fans never go below 1900 RPM even when idle. Temps are fine.

Is 1900 RPM a normal speed for idle?

arc08, there is definitely a difference when comparing to a "new-out-of-the-box" situation. Not loud, as you say, but it's there.

NitroX, you're certainly right - having the laptop on a wooden surface makes the noice more noticeable.

I'm back at one of my main/usual locations, and to be sure, everything sounds as expected.
Thanks for your replies, everyone! I REALLY appreciate it!
