It's on the Dell Studio XPS customization page; I'm using Cooler Master Notepal W2. It fits the notebook perfectly. I have the Notepal Infinite as well, but I reckon it's more suitable for 15.4" notebooks like my old Inspiron 6400.
The bad thing about Notepal W2: no adjustable speed for the fans, I hardly bother to adjust the speed of the fan honestly.
Another reason why I prefer Notepal W2 over Notepal Infinite, it's a pain in the butt to clean the Infinite.
Cleaning 'manual' here, just to give you a rough idea.

hi onyx_black .. i have a little doubt here .. regarding the CM notepal w2, it has 3 fans aligned in the middle of the cooler, whilst the sxps 16 is hot / warm around the palm rest area ... so does the W2 can really do the job well and make the palm rest area cool as well .. thanks smile.gif

Wow... drool.gif Nice specs for under RM5k bro... Why don't you get the Blu-Ray ROM too? It's a little bit of a waste for a Full HD screen without a Blu-ray player... laugh.gif

Dude, what's your warranty? Dell Care Premium is 3 years if I'm not mistaken.

To keep the palm rest reasonably cool, you need some external source of wind to blow the palm rest area; I don't think a notebook cooler can cool down the palm rest area. I'm only interested on letting the notebook cooler to bring in more cool air to the base of my notebook and increase the efficiency of dissipating the heat from the heat sink.
As long as there's air flow beneath the notebook, it shouldn't be a problem.

i heard rave reviews on the zalman ncb2000 cooler. it beats the CM notepal 3 fans W2 coz it spread the cool air, unlike the CM where the cool air is flowed directly.

you shouldn't really compare a graphic card based on window score, that really didnt make much sense on real gaming. example the 3dmark06 of sxps13 gets around 3.4k (based from review might be wrong) while sxps16 gets around 4.8k. some graphics card will get more than 10k but it's still around 5 to 6 on window score because 5.9 (if not wrong or 6) is the highest already.

har ... max is 5.9 or 6 ~.~

after looking at many ATI GC only 3670 can fit this unit ... other only can build in large notebook ...
if use window ultimate will make a different ??

in dell download there only able for window vista 32 and 64 bits will it include the ultimate as well ??
