Gaming Laptop with a Lockable Fan Speed Option?

Code: Select all

gaming + laptop + fanless + completely silent = unicorn
It still looks like that equation holds true, so I'm thinking that the next best thing is a gaming laptop with fan speeds that can be locked. My old desktop from EndPCNoise is set up that way and it works surprisingly well (fan speed control is disabled in the BIOS so that the fans never ramp up). If that requires some undervolting to keep the CPU and graphics card from overheating, so be it. I don't need top-of-the-line bleeding-edge speeds (I'd be satisfied with a laptop that equals or exceeds my 5-year-old desktop). Are there any laptops with which this can be done?
