> battery life, how noisy the fan is, how hot it gets under load

These are also very important factors for me as well. That's the reason I run my laptops with the cpu governor set to battery saving mode. Since for the work I do CPU is rarely the bottleneck, I get better battery life and I can never hear the fans.

I have this set on my thinkpad and the fans are still always going. I'm almost positive its the HDMI driver.

I once plugged my Linux thinkpad into a projector via HDMI during a programming interview, and my laptop started smelling like it was burning. Never again!
