QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Nov 30 2010, 01:41 PM) ah yeah, but undervolting only works for Core 2 Duo... As for rattling, you can try by uninstall the sound driver and use this one http://www.mediafire.com/?uci1clv7ajq7gvuit help remove my rattling... hey, for some reason, i wasn't able to download it from the link you've given me. Anyone having the same problem? @lee_what2004, can u fix that since im having the same rattling also. thanks in advance.

QUOTE(thieflord @ Dec 1 2010, 11:05 AM) hwmonitor reads ur i5 as 560.. thats kinda cool.. i was already thinking of drilling holes under the lappy to ventilate air better guess i dont need to xD that why. i also didnt know which one is true. on paper it is a 460M but on software mostly detect it as 540M. don't really care actually. the difference are very minor.

QUOTE(cain @ Dec 3 2010, 11:46 AM) I realized that i no longer have issues with my lappy heating up. It is AMAZING. I can actually type comfortably for long periods of time with the SXPS on my lap, something that used to be impossible without having my lap thoroughly roasted  how did you do that?

QUOTE(cain @ Dec 3 2010, 01:52 PM) @kamudrikah I simply meant that i am now in Canada where its colder  I don't see how this voids the warranty, but i do have to send it back to M'sia, or at least to US if *touchwood* something happens to my lappy though... ouh... sorry... some misunderstanding there... i thought you customize the internal laptop cooler it self.... my bad. anyway, the engineer was here to fix my speaker problem. they did the job fantastically.

guys, i got the Dell XPS 1647 about a year 1 month now because of this forum. It works like charm. the screen and performance impressed me most. but now, I'm looking to settle down with a smaller laptop and planning to get a macbook pro 13"/15" because i need a mac to do my final project on iPhone apps. i will definitely miss the screen on the XPS 16. i didn't know weather i will survive without it. the the question is how much can i get from selling this super awesome XPS 1647? any interested buyers?
