Current biased towards:
1) Dell Vostro 3450
Dell Vostro 3450 2nd Gen Ci5/ 4 GB/ 500 GB/ Linux: Flipkart.com: Compare, Review Dell Notebook
2) HP Probook 4430s B2X47PA (i5-2430 M - 2Gb - 500 GB)
3) Asus P43E (if i can find it in Nehru Place with 7200 RPM hdd)
4}) Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 430 (also does provides PCIPassThrough --- VT-D)
I prefer dell vostro 3450- but these 3xxx series have High Fan RPM Issue --- but for 3450 Model - A11 BIOS is supposed to fix this FAN issue --- but on some Ubuntu Forums i read that A11 doesn't fix the Fan issue on Vostro 3450.
Q1)Can anyone confirm abou this FAN issue and its resolution
Q2)Now can we control Fan RPM in accord to CPU temp. using software as SPEEDFAN in Vostro 3450 or not ???
Note: Don't recommend AMD Apu Quad system --- as
1)MSR state will be software bounded only - and thereby Windows | hence altered Clocks and Volts will only be applicable to Windows host System.
2) Low IPC Count
