Guys, i need your advice.. icon_question.gif
Today after playing GRID and Crysis 2, my gtx 260m reach its peak temp 102'c..
Once i reached this max temp, i felt sudden lag on my screen, around 1-2 seconds..i think it throttle down to prevent from being toasty..
i just bought m15x, July last year..

Any1 alienware owner can provide me a cleaning and reapply thermal paste service?? icon_question.gif

Yo, dear alien sifus  notworthy.gif

I was wondering whether there's any good thermal paste you guys would recommend?
And any idea where I could get them?
Heard that the OCZ Freeze is quite impressive, but I've never really seen any around  sad.gif
Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance hehe  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

Weird. I never faced such bug before.

Anyway, hackcremo added into M15x Ownerlist! smile.gif

Thanks doc for adding me into the list.

I just went back from meet putochip123 at his home. Really nice saw his handling my beloved m15x not like dell technician last time.
The overheat problem solve after his clean up my heat sink which being clogged by dust and re apply new thermal paste..
Run several stress program Furmark and Dirt 2.. I really love the temperature..never reach 100'c any more..keep in comfortable range..

Thanks to putochip123 for FOC service.. thumbup.gif and also the copy of ehem3 Metro 2033.. biggrin.gif

Are you sure?? kelvin. Desktop may be Nvidia strength, but we are in the laptop territory now. With the price/performance, Amd should have the upper hand.  smile.gif

In the lowyat forum alienware thread and garage sale, I only see casperito  is having gtx 580m flex.gif . Other mostly are gtx 460, 6870, or 6970m. I don't see much gtx 580m and amd 6990m around.

Even GreaseMonkey90 's M18x(rich brows.gif  ) are only with 6970 xcrossfire. He may gonna change card since his 6970m have some driver problem. But do not know it is due to amd or due to xcrossfire. Since sli and xfire both have some issue.

And sager thread are mostly filled with 485m for 3d and 6970m. Now amd 6990m starting to emerge on their units.

In the US, the new buyer for the past months are mostly with amd 6990m. About 20 gtx580 : 80 amd 6990m. It may be due to high price of Nvidia over AMD. Now they are still arguing who is being the better card. doh.gif

How come Malaysia user preference so much difference from US or even Australia user? let's see an example. A person(not referring to anyone) paid 7k for m17x r3 with 6970m. But in fact, he can get it with amd 6990m for 8k. It is just like buying a 200k car but do not want to opt for better engine in order to save 20k. Especially graphic card is the most impt. component for gaming laptop. sweat.gif

Also, one more thing, Sager users/reseller generally don't emphasis on cpu, they do not think it will impact much on gaming performance, but on the other hand, alienware user opt for more powerful cpu. In dell malaysia and singapore, 2820qm even become a standard spec in the configuration. This is another big difference in view between 2 groups of gamers. Funny huh? rclxub.gif

Note: I am not trying to argue with u tongue.gif , just feel strange after getting feed back from here and NBR. Why the "needs and wants" are so much difference between 2 forum's users or 2 group of gamers.

Cheers smile.gif
