You mean that extending the warranty now will be twice the price of extending the warranty when ordering my SXPS 16 for the same duration?

What temperatures are you getting?Use HW monitor and GPU-Z for CPU/GPU/HDD temperature monitoring

You got a 3 fan plastic cooler FOC right?To be honest, it's crap rclxms.gif

Try getting a Zalman NC2000 tongue.gif

how about  CoolerMaster Infinite if compare to NC2000 ? well it is right to the size and better budget....
will the temp harm my lappy ?well if it wont i wont mind it~~
*
Coolermaster Infinite cannot compare with NC2000.One is RM100 and the other is RM200+ sweat.gif

High temperatures will harm your laptop but not sure up to what extent.Don;t you feel that sometimes your laptop gets hot?The touch pad area there and the surrounding places?

Edit:Yes your temperature is high.Lack of good air flow and this laptops cooling system isn't that great anyway sad.gif

Sent him the email this afternoon, right after my previous post in this thread. Until now no reply yet. WTH? Doesn't seem keen to do business with me.

Got connected with Quinn_Ooi second time round. My "experience" with her was brief and didn't even get a quote from her... sad.gif After i told her the specs i wanna upgrade, didn't get any reply from her... until finally got disconnected by the system.

Am i doing this wrong, or is it just my unlucky day today?  hmm.gif
*
Today's streamyx line is shakehead.gif I do get disconnected a couple of times in the chat system.Do give her an email nod.gif

One thing, do remember to check with Dell about the hard drive partitioning..I think by default, all goes to C sweat.gif

Using HD5770 will yet again justify Studio XPS 16's position as the top contender in the RM4K price range rclxms.gif

An upgrade to HD5000 series GPU is almost inevitable tongue.gif Do wait for it as the upgrade from HD4670 would be huge jump

Chat function icon is located at the right hand side of the page.Look under "Purchase Help"

Hope this helps smile.gif
