does the x200s have the same fan noise problem as the x300?

X200, X201, X220 (including equivalent tablet models) and X300, X301 series specific matters only.

Hi guys, i'm looking to upgrade to a x200s and was wondering if it also suffers from the loud fan noises like the x300?
i'm upgrading from a excellent x31 that had a mb failure and the fan noise on that was none existant when using office / word.

thanks.

I haven´t heard of such a problem with the X300 series... There might be isolated cases (like for every other model) but in general, from what I have heard and seen, the X300s are very silent and cool running machines.

My x200s was extremely quiet under normal usage - I can't imagine fan noise ever being an issue.

My X200s with the SSD drive is completely silent and cool, with the fan rarely turning on, and when it does it is barely audible.
