i tried gaming with coolest mode, u3 and power saving mode. played crysis and darksiders, the temperature is around 70 when the core is running at 1kMhz, but it reach up 90+ when boost up to 2.5kMhz. is this normal temp when gaming? i scare it will burn up. so quickly stop the game after playing half and hour, will there be side effect going up to 90+ degres? 1 of the core even reached 96. sad.gif

I think you should bring your baby to HP Service Centre and ask them to reapply thermal paste for you. 96c is way too high for this lappy.

Question, how do you check if temp is above average and what should be the normal one?

When you temperatures if off by 5-10 degress compare to another user with the same lappy. tongue.gif


Added on July 18, 2011, 3:39 amBy the way, any 6114TX/6108TX owner willing to do some battery and temperatures test? I need some real data from that muxless design motherboard.

You can't switch graphic if you have application that currently using 3D acceleration(eg: WLM). Close the application and u can switch the graphic.

On the HP warranty lookup site, it shows my warranty is until 2012. Why is this? I bought the care pack, and emailed the form to the siruiscom people like 1 month ago.

Are they going to add another year soon? Anyone else been through this?

Id check my warranty status today, and it showed my warranty is untill 2013. Apparently the warranty that I bought (which is 2 years onsite) overlapping the 1 year original warranty from HP, 1+2 years (total 3 years) that I expected.

You can call them and ask about that.

Guys what is the street price for dV6-6001TX & DV6-6114TX? I prefer to buy without the beats if possible... Will use the money saved from the beats for a laptop case, 9-cell battery, 3 year warranty and if possible an SSD.....
Would also like a blu-ray drive model... Anyone here runs DV6-6114TX in Linux? I may try linux once in a while and I think muxless designs are a pain on linux and *Hack*intosh.
*
If you from southern, you can get your DV6-6001TX w/o Beats for RM2999 at Navotech@Stygix.

sorry for off topic but i wanna know don't put a battery into the laptop whn u r using it by plug rite ? and anyone know dv6 carepack 3 years warranty  cost how much ?  smile.gif
*
Not really, if you're just doing light stuff and the cpu temps didn't exceed 70c there no harm keeping the battery plugged in.

Back in V1 thread, few guys bought the Care Pack for RM79 from online website. Normal price is RM199, previously marcus selling for RM129 i think.. i'm not sure how much he selling one right now.
I got mine from Hikari85 for RM149.

QUOTE(hirota @ Jul 19 2011, 05:23 PM)
wow, i just plug out my battery and put it into my laptop bag, but do i need to discharge it?
*
If you tend to keep it out for a long period, better to discharge it around 30%-50% first.

Since we are the topic of batt, how long is normally the batt life say just watching movie or tv series??

Benchmark = 42fps@Stock

Based on the DV6 review @ http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-HP-Pav...ok.56672.0.html

'''Finally, the overall performance is affected by the CPU throttling when the CPU and GPU are both under load, and the cooler fan settings is in "Cool" or "Quiet" mode. Gamers will need to use the optimal "Performance" mode'''

So that means that HP underclocks our hardware at coolest mode?
Seems to imply that the performance mode is the best for gaming
*
Not underclock but ni Cool/Quiet mode TurboBoost will be disable.

So its best to leave it in performance mode? Mine in performance mode runs pretty hot, and the fan does not speed up much. But in coolest mode, the fan is running all the time, and I see no difference in performance..

Is there a way to force turboboost while leaving it in the coolest mode?

What mode do you use Acid?
*
I don't think you'll notice the performance increase for normal usage. I set mine to performance by the way, since the temps is doing good.
