The heat issue only happened on desktop IvyBridge right? Because the IHS use normal TIM instead of silicon solution and the heat issue only rise when u overclock the CPU.

if carry in warranty, price will be around rm 199

Hi Sifus, i wanted to send my notebook dv6 to service center located at HP tower. Do i need to make appointment before go? Btw, usually take how long to repair my lappy or is it collect it on the spot?

My defect is the fan problem which detected when i switch on my lappy and the message will auto pop up during loading...

nah, no need.
just walk-in -> take number -> be served by 2 options. 1-express service (b4 12/1pm) 4H service/2-normal service 3working days -> take the service receipt and go back.

by default, HP SC turnaround time is 3 working days unless there is no stock for parts or the issue is too abnormal that require additional time to monitor it.

btw, any1 would agree with me that just use the dv6 as rough as u can until it died by itself? eg. on for 24/7 (except for travelling), battery leave it be, doesnt give a dam to the heat when play HD games.
i mean from past experience with computer i used, it seems that computer that is turn on 24/7 will last longer for those that constantly shutdown and turn on when in use. just my 2cents on this

Thanks sifu smile.gif
Means that i can choose either express service which i have to wait for 4 hours and must arriving there before 1pm or just take away the receipt and collect my lappy after 3 days service, am i right??

My problem is the cooling fan not functional correctly sad.gif
