Dv6:an har ett undermåligt kylningssystem och en fläkt som inte är direkt tyst.
"Noise was likewise a mixed blessing on the dv6z. The fan moved a significant amount of hot air and the fan noise was reasonably quiet at idle. However, when the system was under stress the fan became as loud as a quiet hair dryer. Of course, the manufacturer of the cooling fan in your notebook might be different and the dv6z should produce less heat if you configure it with the integrated graphics card, so your mileage (or decibels) may vary."

"I agree that HP needs beefier cooling systems; my HP is ridiculous. It must be on a notebook cooler while playing games or at the very least have the back raised up. Without a cooler my 9600M GT gets to nearly 95*C. On a cooler it gets into the high 80*C range. The surface and bottom of the whole left side get dangerously hot - it literally almost burns to touch. Not very safe if you ask me. It does not appear HP has changed their cooling system design with the dv6."
Utblåsen ligger på undersidan och dessa är underdimensionerade. Räkna med stora problem när det börjar samlas damm i kylflänsarna.
Dv6000 och Dv2000-serierna var lika illa konstruerade och många dog efter en tid..
