not sure if theyres replacement fans, but it would no doubt void your warranty
Another thing to note though, is that I see your running windows 7. While that's great and they should make laptops that will run final buyers preffered operating system, there are no 100% asus drivers made for this notebook specifically for windows 7. My guess is that your missing something, update to driver or something, that controls either fan speed or fan temp curve or something.

So Windows 8 seems to be behaving the same way - are there any fan control drivers you know of?

Gammatron, Notebook FanControl works on the G750, kinda bare bones, but the first I have seen that actually works. You could try setting the speed lower than the annoyance frequency and see if the temps are ok long term - cutting the noise but keeping it cool enough.
The newest version 1.11.19 works for my G750JH, using the Asus M52VA config, installed, changed settings to start with Windows and minimize to systray, and rebooted.

I'm very certain that all fan control is done wth bios and the bios drivers. And asus has those locked down tight. I haven't seen a single mod done to asus bios yet.
It should still be in bios for fan controls even running windows 7. But, windows 7 might/might not require more resources to run, or some kind of other driver might be effecting fans. Not to sure, as it was only designed with windows 8 in mind. But that said, windows 8 with a program like start8 ($5) completely illiminates the whole metro and brings 100% traditional start menu back. It boots quicker, requires less resources, and is generally quicker in almost every area. Other than coding for specific programs not being designed for windows 8 yet, I don't see a downfall of it. But that coding is a huge deal if this is a workstation type laptop for you, I know there are several programs I use that require windows 7, but some have been slowly coming to windows 8.

Thanks, I'll give it a go! EDIT: It seems that as soon as I installed the program, my computer spiraled into a loop of BSODs with the 'driver irql not less or equal' message, so I had to uninstall it. EDIT: It seems to have been SpeedFan - every time I'd run it, it would case the blue screen... But this was only after I had installed and applied the FanControl.

Wow, I went into edit and set my threshold to 85, and now it works like a charm... even during gaming, when it would before unnecessarily go to 4k and more, it sits at what sounds like 2.5k (25%) and has no problem keeping the CPU at 68-75. Thanks so much, this could really save me a lot of stress!
By the way, could I, under the same profile, set specific speeds for specific temperature ranges, say 15% when the CPU is between 50 and 60 degrees, and 25% for anything between 60 and 85, then 50%, say?
