I have a Dell XPS 13 that serves me since 2008. However, since day 1, I noticed that the heating issue is always the problem. Sometimes the palm area is so hot! (especially after so many years, getting hotter and hotter).

Is the new XPS 13 having the similar heating issue? Any comment from user?

Bought a Dell XPS 13 at Houston, Texas, USA back in July 2015. Now the battery has swollen and my keyboard is heavily deformed.

Because of the Heat?

Enter XPS family, going repaste thermal paste + some undervolt.

Anyone can get thermalpad locally?

Btw, the XPS 13 2in1 is using mobile fanless processor, if you are doing intensive processor stuff, it may not be suitable for you. The performance isn't that good compare to the normal XPS 13.

Just done undervolt + first repaste actity

Default
Undervolt : Non

Ambient : 68c
Fan : 4890 RPM


Undervolt (1)
Undervolt : CPU-0.14 iGPU-0.10

Ambient : 65c
Fan : 4070 RPM


Undervolt (2)
Undervolt : CPU-0.15

Finally decide 0.14 for some safety factor

Dell XPS 13 with 8th Gen Intel Processors Arriving in Malaysia in October

https://www.lowyat.net/2017/142879/dell-xps...laysia-october/

Beyond the new choice of processors, the new XPS 13 isn’t all that different from previous generations. It retains the very same design, including the impressive InfinityEdge display. Aside from that, the laptop also comes with a slew of different configurations – four of them, in fact.

Let’s start with the most affordable RM4,999 XPS 13. It features a 13.3-inch Full HD non-touch display, an Intel Core i5-8250U processor paired with 4GB of RAM, a 128GB SSD, as well as Intel HD graphics; all variants of the XPS 13 does not come with any discrete GPU.

A tier up is the RM5,999 model, which offers double the RAM and SSD storage of the previous variant. Of course, this particular model also comes with a higher resolution QHD+ touch display.

And then we have the third option: retailing at RM6,899, this XPS 13 adds a Core i7-8550U processor along with a QHD+ display, 8GB of RAM and 256GB of SSD storage.

Last but definitely not least is the top-of-the-line XPS 13. Packed with a very generous 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD, this model goes for RM7,399.

The new Dell XPS 13 will be available in Malaysia from 6 October onwards.

Wow! Kopi Lake coming!
