    Yes, so a lot of M1330 users are experiencing the infamous CPU and southbridge whine. I am just curious to know how many people can tolerate it and how many people can't. For those who have to deal with this, how many of you are using RM clock and other third party software to suppress the whine?

    As you know, this issue does not only include m1330 laptops, but the majority of the other models too. That being said, i am voting.

    I'm aware of that but I believe the whine occurs in the m1330 more than any others.
