Suppose it depends if the bios supports it. Is the bios for most ion motherboards the same?

Quote:There's a single heatsink + fan that's used to cool the CPU, GPU and NM10 Express chipset. At idle it's barely audible right next to the machine and unnoticeable from across the room. The problem is that the dual core Atom D510 can put out a decent amount of heat under full load. After a lot of testing the fan spun up to 6500 RPM and then noise is another issue entirely. I measured 55 dB(A) an inch away from the unit with the fan running at 6500 RPM. A foot away we're still at 50dB(A).

Not really a step forward on the noise front is it? OH well....

It boots fast, runs smooth.
Of course, I can't for the life of me get HDMI audio working.
But that seems the be a pretty common dilemma.
