Speed Fan on M11x R1.

Hey Guys so these days I've been playing more than usual. Assassins creed II and Sniper ghost warrior. And the thing is my gpu temp is around 83 and that is affecting my games. FPS drops AC II went from 22-20 into 8 frames per second on High settings. I downloaded speed fan to increase the fan speed but It just does not appear there. I asked a friend that he got the same problem the fan is not there so we cant change it to higher speeds. Anyone else got that problem? Do you guys know how to repair it?

 

I don't believe that the m11x fan speeds can be altered. Do you use a cooler underneath it? If not, I would recommend getting one.

 

oh so maybe is that......yeah I ill try to get one.......I hear some people use the program for theirs m11x

 

That's correct.

 

Speedfan has never worked for notebooks. Its meant to be for desktops.

 

If your temperatures are that high on an R1, there's some sort of problem. Either change the thermal paste yourself, or call Dell for a new motherboard if you'd rather not.

 

Don't play it on your bed with out a cooler under it

 

No kidding. I don't understand how people are even getting past 50C.

 

The thing is I bought my alienware back when I was in houston texas and I moved in to argentina. So Im not sure If I can replace it =/.

 

Dell warranty is International... You can replace it in Argentina. Just make a transfer using Dell Warranty site...

 

hey When am not even gaming my GPU heat goes to like 45-47 when am not gaming >..<" how do i know what my VGA venison so iknow if i have to update it or not ? because like it gets heated up alot sometimes 50-53 when am not even gaming just browsing and am using saving mode one not the increased Performance8


Thats when am not gaming or doing anything just browsing and chatting >.<"
and then the FAN starts working very loudly ! to coool off the VGA then the VGA heat goes down to like 42-48

 

I've been getting pretty good temps from stress testing. Gpu seems to max out at 61/62*c with kombuster and cpu is gets no higher than 55*c with prime95 oc'd. Seems to be pretty good on idle too, but gpu stay around 47*c

Stress:


Idle:

 

It's normal for the laptop to heat up to around 40-47C with normal use. It helps if you can keep the bottom clear from your lap and also the left top side as that's where the fan is.

 

So hey guys do you know the site to transfer the warranty?

 

oh nice good info
