May I ask you, which settings you have in the bios for the MCP SMU SmartFan Control of your Zotac Mag? I am asking, because my one gets very loud within minutes with the out-of-the-box settings and the latest bios... My settings there: 30/70/50/240.

Thanks for your answer 3guk. Are you sure about the last entry, the 250? Because imo 240 is the max entry it can have if I am not wrong... My entries (30/70/50/240) are the default entries. CPU temp on idle is around 68-70°C. My Mag lays flat on a table. (Just had a look at some pics of the mag in a review - it looks like this way, the mainboard / hdd and cpu are upside down in the box, if it lays flat).

Apologies, it's actually set to 240, misread it !!!
Maybe you got a duff unit ? I don't find the fans on mine to be all that loud, although I do have it strapped to the back of the TV, so I guess noise isn't too much of an issue !!

Have you checked the bios settings to try to enable resume from usb? I know when I built my single core zotac there was a setting I had to enable..

Resume from USB does work. You just have to figure out on which BUS you have your remote connected then you trigger it via /proc/acpi/wakeup. In my case it is US15 (as far as I remember) So:
echo US15 > /proc/acpi/wakeup
