So I decided to buy a cooler after reading everything in the cooler review threads and grabbed an Enermax Aeolus Aluminum Notebook Cooler w/ 250mm Fan. I only have an extended battery and
I can't really tell any dramatic difference so far. I am just wondering what the masses have decided is the best for our particuliar notebook!
Thinking about getting this cooler for my XPS 16. About $35-40 shipped. I've read alot of great reviews on it, and it seems to be the best cooler for use in various locations like when sitting on the bed, on the sofa, on my lap...etc.
I'm wondering if there are any XPS 16 owners who have used this, and can confirm that it significantly reduces the heat of the XPS 16 and, specifically, the spot under the touchpad.
How are these working with your Studio XPS 13/16 notebooks?
My wife has a 13 and I have a 16, and we're needing to pick up a couple coolers for game sessions.
To be blunt, I find myself doubting that they could provide a truly outstanding performance on the XPS due to the vent placement on the cooler in relation to the intakes on the XPS.
In fact, when I look at a top-down view of the coolers and the bottom of our laptops, the vents really only get about 10% coverage.
Does anyone have any other coolers they are running that better then the zalmans? If they're the best then I'll grab a 1000 for the wifey and a 2000 for myself.
Apparently its a common problem on the SXPS 13 where the Ethernet adapter fails to work after the system resumes from sleep. It is caused by the NVIDIA chipset driver.
Can you check if yours is working correctly after the system resumes from Standby or sleep? If so, can you post what OS you are using? Which driver(Win 7 or Dell one)?
Can my dell xps m1530 use the Core 2 Extreme Processor QX9300 2.53GHz, 1067MHZ, 12M L2 Cache Dual Core Processor?? Right now im using the X7900.

View 10 Replies View RelatedSo I haven't even had my laptop for a year yet (will be a year at the end of May). I bought a separate 9-cell somewhere in late June or early July.
I've noticed as of late, that my battery life is nowhere near as long as it used to be. With all my tweaks and once it was sitting at the desktop idle, Rightmark would regularly say I have almost 6 hours of charge left. As of today, I don't even see 4.5 hours, sometimes barely 4 hours.
I checked the battery by holding down the button at back; the lights go away instantly and then 3 of them light back up.
I definitely didn't buy this thing with the expectation that it would lose over 30% of its capacity in barely 10 months of use, especially considering a new battery costs between 100-150 bucks.
Every time I run the Client System Update tool and check for updates I get the error message "Check for updates failed"
I have a Dell Latitude E6430 running Windows 7 SP1 64 bit and I am connected to the internet...
I know it has been mentioned before. It must be buried in some threads and I can't find it.
Anyw what is the best cooler for the XPS 16?
Since dell refuses to do anything to solve the heat issue with the xps 1645 i am planning on buying a notebook cooler but i am undecided what to pick, was wondering if anyone could give me some opinions...

Which is the best (most efficient) laptop cooler for the M6400?
I am zeroing in on the Antec 200. Apparently more efficient temperature wise than the Zalman NC2000
My XPS should hopefully be delivered in the next couple of days (see signature for specs).
It will be a desktop replacement primarily used for internet browsing, video streaming, watching a few blu-ray movies and the occasional gaming session.
I don't want to go too much into the heat issues, however to be prepared for longer periods (ie 4-8 hours)
I thought it might be wise to invest in a notebook cooler. Having done a bit of research the following seem to be popular:

can you guys recommend the best notebook cooler that will fit for XPS1530.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI was playing BF2 yesterday for about 45 minutes online when suddenly it froze.
I was forced to hold the power button to shut it off. When I tried to turn it back on the lights flashed and it shut off. I tried to start it again and the lights flashed and it shut down again. At this point I felt like . SoI unplugged all usb devices and the power cord let it sit for a couple minutes and tried again. This time it booted to a black screen that said your system shutdown due to excessive heat error code #MO44. I opened up the laptop removed the fans and blew out the dust from the machine. The problem is it wasn't really that hot. I know it has been hotter in the past while gaming. Anyway I am going to get a cooler for when I'm gaming. I know there have been threads here before but searching was no real help. I am looking for the most efficient cooler out there for my 1710. I reallly don't care what it looks like as long as it does what it's supposed to do.
I'm running Vista Ultimate and I8KFANGUI my peak idle temps are
CPU: 50C
GPU: 59C
RAM: 51C
Can anyone recommend a good cooler for the sxps 13?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI was thinking about buying a notebook cooler, most likely the COOLER MASTER NotePal Infinite Notebook Cooler and i was just wondering if it would increase throttling as it draws its power from the laptop .....
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm looking to purchase a notebook cooler (off of newegg.com or somewhere like that) to cool down my Nvidia 8600M.
I'm looking for something around $50 USD but I don't mind spending more.
Anyone with any luck in regards to a particular cooler that they have used to keep their temperatures down? I want something that will work well with my laptop specifically.
I also wanted to note that I have a 9 cell battery on my laptop and not the 6 cell (if that makes a difference).
My left palm is getting really warm and I need to find a way to make typing comfortable. What cooler do you use on the M1330? I just had the motherboard(A14 bios) & heatsink replaced. It's still really hot

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have an xps 16 and was wondering if I need a laptop cooler. I do play games but the most intensive one is probably Team Fortress 2.
When I do play it, the laptop does get pretty hot on the bottom with the fan running and everything. Besides that I pretty much use my computer for web surfing, word processing, and stuff like that.
I'm getting my Dell next week,can anyone suggest any tips on checking the laptop ( bios ,box..etc) ?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHey all,
I just got a coolermaster notepal infinite cooler today and have tried it out for 30 min playing left 4 dead. Usually my gpu would throttle due to high temps but it isnt anymore with the cooler, although it is still really hot.
max temps
gpu = 80 degrees c (still really hot!, used to throttle at 84)
cpu = 73 degrees c (much much better, used to reach 84 as well)
So the cooler has helped although not as much as i would like for the gpu. It gets me thinking that without the throttling that gpu could reach 90 degrees easily.
It also doesnt really decrease the idle temps too much, maybe 5 degrees ish.
Overall, it definitely helps, but this laptop is still damn hot, even with the cooler. I will continue testing with different games and will let you know the outcomes.
I was wondering if any of you can recommend a good laptop cooler?
One that can be used while sitting on the couch or in bed while the laptop cooler would be resting on a blanket.
Ive read great reviews on the net about the Cryo LX cooler where some reviews seem to say its the best cooler currently available for large gaming laptops,
i was just wondering if anyone is using one with their M1730 and what sort of results have you had ?
Do the fans line up nicely on the Cryo LX with the fans on the M1730 ?

I know some SXPS 16 owners were considering this, and I just received mine in the mail today.
I posted my review of it here http://forum.notebookreview.com/show...23#post5093023
At the request of some of the people on this site, I am posting a couple of pics of the bottom of my E6400.
Reason being, some would like to see if DELL has changed anything with regard to the thermals as this unit (T9400/Nvidia 160m) is finally running at a consistently cool temp, without the fan constantly going haywire (docked, with two external monitors).
