940XM is kinda active, even by idle its suddenly shoots ups to 68-70c if there is something working at the background.
The fan goes crazy for a few mins.
Didnt have time to test it yet, alot of works coming in. Typical raya timing, everything's in a rush  sweat.gif
They would send you a text if your rig has arrived in M'sia, and if you need to do any changes they also include a number for you to call. I think they let you change both location of delivery and time/date.

After upgrading my GPU, the next thing I wanted to upgrade was the cpu to a 940xm. But then I was adviced to wait till the new M17 comes out and get that instead of investing more and more on my M15x.... My 820QM will have to suffice for now....no problems so far...

hmm I am planning to get a 17x-R2 with i7-840QM, will it have heat issue too?

I think you'll never have to worry about heat issue when using the M17x.

[attachmentid=1747963]

somehow i don't think so.. but do you have any source to share?

to be exactly recall, M17x just reach 1 year age when it landed to Malaysia. and premium laptop like this will not release the next model with this short period of time. thats what in my mind.. hmm.gif
