    Hello all, just purchased the GT72 and I love it, but I do have a little concern about it though.
    When I plug it into the wall and touch the lid, I feel a littttleeee vibration, like some sort of buzz that disappears once I disconnect the charger. You can't hear it or anything, just feel it.
    I tried to google it, but people have said it has to do with the aluminum lid? I'm just a little worried though, should I return it or just keep going on?

    The fans may run at a faster RPM once you have the AC Adapter plugged in causing that vibration. You can get a program that tells you the RPM they are spinning and and do a A/B test. Open Hardware Monitor will do so.
