>> The CPUs are cooled down using a brand-new cooling system that relies on two fans
I'm somewhat of stickler for fan noise but I hope this implementation doesn't result in being loud
>> equipped with up to 16 GB of soldered-down DRAM
That's enough for me right now but no room for expansion
>> a 52 Wh battery that can enable operation for up to 19 hours on one charge
Hope real-world battery life comes close
>> Dell’s new XPS 13 with quad-core CPUs will be available starting August 27 at $899.99
Quad-core for less than $1K...nice!
- jbob2000 7y agoI actually like fans. I think of them as an auditory indicator of the workload/heat of your machine. Rather than a blinking light or looking at something in task manager, my ears tell me all I need to know.
- p0nies 7y agoI always disable Turbo Boost, huge temperature difference.
- rowanG077 7y agoSame. Sustained performance is also a lot better for me if I disable turbo boost.
- somebodythere 7y agoDual fans should be quieter as the fans can spin slower to provide the same amount of heat dissipation. Fan noise is proportional to the fourth power of RPM, so this sounds like a good thing.
