hi,

I do have connected my mba rev B to the 27'' LED. The rev B performs well, but the fans are spinning like hell. What about the new 13'' mba? Does anyone has the 27'' and the new mba? Is the upgrade worth?

thanks
Gregor

The GPU is more powerful and cooler then its predecessor so it should work without really over heating the machine.

As for its worth, only you will be able to discern whether spending them money on the new machine is worth it

the fan speed is really annoying and really loud. Would be nice if someone here has tested it. If it is the same with the new one it wouldn't be worth..

I will be able to check the 11.6 connected to a 27" ACD in a few days (should be on its way shortly). Though I think the upgraded GPU in new Airs is going to make a substantial difference.
