i changed my stock dell XPS cooling system a little today and got a 10 degree improvement...wtf
the stock cooling config has one fan in the front drawing air in and two exhaust fans with a shroud over the cpu to draw air over the heatsink. Well i took the shroud off and put a fan i had lying around over the heatsink and pointed it into the cpu...
Now instead of ~42dC idle i get ~33dC and under load i get ~45dC instead of almost hitting 60
wtf guys...is the stock dell cooling system that bad?
