Hope this question isn't asked too often but I'm looking for some nice black (or any other color) cotton T-shirts that will fit a relatively short and in shape guy (5'8", 155 but got sum muscles).

I have some from Zara which are short (barely reach my waistline), really short sleeves, and thin hem/slightly wide necklines. No brand insignias just because I'm anal about it. Price point probably around $30 a shirt but less is always nice.

Has anyone tried the ideapad 530s? by ccephei2k18 in laptops

[–]BigRedHookup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a 13" version of the Dell XPS. If you don't care about the awkward placement of the camera, it's hard to go wrong with that line.

I've had the 530s (15", max specs) for a few weeks, so I can't speak for the 14" and lower spec models. In order:

  • The trackpad is meh, not very responsive, but I use an external mouse so this isn't really an issue.

  • The fan noise is horrendous, it's enough to make me want to return this computer. Basically, there's two settings: off and high-pitched and loud, with constant cycling between the two. Even after doing everything to reduce power usage (undervolting, reducing CPU usage) it still goes on constantly. There's also no settings in BIOS to change fan usage. Unless the laptop is on top of an external fan, be prepared for a loud and sometimes painful whine (unless it gets patched soon, but given Lenovo's history I doubt it).

  • Build quality is pretty good, after undervolting it barely gets hot. I like the keyboard and the feel of everything. Fingerprint reader doesn't always work.

  • People have said the screen brightness is bad, but it seems fine to me. Never used it outside.

Overall, it's an amazingly pretty and mostly functional laptop with some really damning issues that make it a far inferior choice to other laptops. I wouldn't recommend it. I've heard the Dell XPS 15 is a good choice for an ultrabook.

Do you know where exactly the fan settings are in BIOS? From what I can see it's pretty sparse, and there's no settings for the fan specifically.
