what compound u use? or maybe the contact between the heatsink and the gpu is not good? the pressure not strong enough?

GTx 460M or 560M ?

but 5870 or 5850 will be cheaper...

planning to get 240w PSU soon, my 150w charging rate sometimes not stable.. =.=

but very hard to get the 240w here, and dell price is crazy...

seems need to get it from ebay...

Yup, Mushkin start selling single 8GB SoDimm 1600 now,
Add RM1k, u got 16 GB today

Even older machine still un-officially support 16gb, as long as u use x64 architecture.

But seems the benefit is goes more to digital & 3D artist than to gamer..

Still, is a good thing... Gonna wait till the price lowered a bit, and gonna get pair for myself, hehe

with RM320 can get X-25 SSD already, hahaha

btw, i check at ebay, it's arround RM180 inc shipping for the 240W adapter.. i think gonna buy it next month...

just make sure u go to a good shop, some shop not even know what is alienware, i like freezed when i hear their reaction when i asking about alienware adapter... they think it's a new lousy china brand

but as long as u know what u do, u can do it by yourself actually...

or maybe the contact between yor heatsink with GPU really bad..

when repasting try put a fingerprint of the thermal paste, and after put the heatsink, try pull it back, see wheteher the fingerprint still there or not.., if still there, means the contact really bad...

1800-88-0301 is number that come out at alienware website, so i think it should be good to go...

as for paste, Arctic Silver MX-4 is good and commonly used, also easy to found, else for consideration : Tuniq TX-4, Shin-Etsu G751 or Cooler Master TF-400 also should be good enough if u didn't do any OC, and also cheaper..., haha

can i buy Bigfoot only?

in windows 7, use snipping tools..., can selectively print screen...

i assign shortcut (CTRL+SHIFT+4) for this just like on Mac OS X, haha

bro still keep ur Jasper Xbox? can PM me best price? hehehe
