Hot Asus EEE PC701

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/Hot Asus EEE PC701

Mine whines sometimes as well (the fan). It does get quite hot as well. You must remember that there is much less between you and the hot parts than a normal sized laptop. Maybe you are just aware of this. Don't forget to allow some circulation space around it (ie. don't rest it on a cushion on your lap etc).

I wouldn't rush back to the shop just yet. Wait till it breaks. :)
