So this arrived, you can see my specs in the signature.

Great build quality, and nice and thin.

Out of the box, prime95 small fft test results in the cpu reaching 95 degrees C.

The fans are quiet at idle. They only get louder under load

I love the fingerprint reader

The 120hz panel has some odd banding issues, but only with certain pictures. For example - http://cdn.overclock.net/8/8d/8d7dc2b8_DeusEx_MankindDividedv1.16build761.017_04_201716_37_20.png On my screen it looks like:

I undervolted the Core/Cache/Igpu by -135mv using ThrottleStop.

Firestrike

Crystal DiskMark:

I just played hitman (well the opening parts of the game) on the highest settings and the gpu reached 67 and cpu 73. That's all I've done so far. Happy to do any other tests if anyone needs.

Can you do a video that will illustrate the fan noise when playing a game please?
