xps gen2 normal temps

[onion]

Hi folks!


I have a gen 2 and I have recently started to get in depth with all aspects of the beast.
I have installed mbm5 and was stunned when I saw my temps, CPU after about 10mins idle is 98f and 120 to 135 with a load, case temp is 71f idle and 90 to 100 with a load..these temps are not good are they?
Fans are all working, however I have no heat sink fan.
All input will be much appreciated.
Thanks in Advance

thats not bad.. have you done any modding to the cooling? that'll drop the temps a bit

Crank that puppy up with the room temperature at 100F if you truly want to be stunned.....but the temps are about right for a non moded xps of that gen.
It looks as if your vid card dumps hot exhaust into the chassis.....there are a various changes peeps have made to the xps cooling here.......so peruse a bit and think on it before jumping in.
