I have the same computer running OpenSuse 10.2 and I don't experience such problems. Well, there's the noise from fan on graphics card in text mode, which is not (mostly) present while in X but apart from that, it's OK. Graphics card is HP supplied Quadro FX1500.
I can't compare with Windows though... Anyway - only fan noise I can hear is from graphics card. There's little high-RPM fan there producing some sort of swish instead of (less noticeable and less disturbing) humming produced by larger slower rotating fans.
