I didn't see that problem but once the fan speed had some sort of glitch and went up to some extreme loud level (way more than 5000 RPM) and then it just fell back to 0 RPM (sensors) while the temperature was at the 45°C range. Usually my x40 just sits around with 0 RPM and it's not that clean since it's been in use quite some time. No problems getting even near to overheating with that device. Well, maybe that's another thing in summer.
