Everything runs perfect. Alas, the fan never stops, which is a little annoying. Fancontrol doesn't work because there are no sensors for the fan speed. The fan isn't too noisy, but I really enjoy very quiet computers, so this bothers me. Imagine running water in the room next to yours, that's about how loud it is.
