Ok thx

Hi, my Alienware fans dont work on their own so I had to setup HWINFO64 I just want to make sure the gtx1070 gets cooled properly, the gpu never gets hot right after turning on the laptop right? (because when setting up HWINFO64, I think it only starts the fans and cools the gpu when windows boots, not when pressing the power button of the laptop) Thx
-
Okay, thanks
-
Hi, Im going to get an GTX1070 MXM soon, but just wanted to be sure, does the Alienware 18 R1 motherboard have enough power to handle the GTX1070's full power? (It wont burn out or something like that?) Thx

Thermal pads thickness for GTX1070 MXM
Sebastian Ramirez replied to Sebastian Ramirez's topic in Alienware 18 and M18x
Ok, thanks -
Hi, I just wanted to know, does someone know what thermal pads thickness works best with this heatsink and this GTX1070 MXM I show in these pictures for my Alienware 18 (So the thermal pads make perfect contact with the heatsink and the vrm, vram and the other chips, but not too thick so the gpu doesnt get bent) Thanks!
-
There is this other temperature in my HWINFO named "Hot Spot", I wanted to know if that one is the temperature of the hottest chip of my GTX980M right? Either RAM, VRAM or VRM right? If so, I guess I put the thermal pads correctly because my Hot Spot has good temps? Thx
-
Ok,I understand, yes I bought the modded heatsink from him, its also the 18 inch Aleinware 18
-
My GTX1070 MXM is a bit bent, will it cause issues? I just want to make sure the thermal pads are making proper contact with the heatsink

Putting thermal pads on top of each other
Sebastian Ramirez replied to Sebastian Ramirez's topic in Alienware 18 and M18x
Okay,, thanks for answer! -
Hi everyone, just wanted to know if its a good idea to put a 1.5mm thermal pad on top of a 2.5mm for these chips I highlighted (GTX1070MXM), (Im using a customized heatsink, so I just wanted to know if will putting those thermal pads on top of each other will keep the chips cool enough)
-
Ok, thanks
-
Ok, so it won't overheat right?
-
Hi everyone, I bought a GTX980M, as this one in the picture, however, should I take out the black part that is around the main chip?(The one I highlighted in red) Or should I leave it there? I just want to make sure the gpu gets cooled properly
-
Do the ones highlighted in yellow require thermal pads? Thanks
-
understood, thx
-
Hi, I just wanted to know if an NV75W heatsink is enough for a GTX980M for the Alienware 18 Thanks
-
Old configuration were two 860m, and the surface of their chips of those were covered fully by the NV75W, but it still should work with a 980m right?
-
Hi, since I have an older Alienware 18 I wanted to sell, I just wanted to make sure that the heatsink works properly, as you can see the heatsink does't cover the entire chip I highlighted in the picture, it that okay? The chip should be still cooled off properly right? (I will put thermal pads on all the chips of the GPU) Thanks

Motherboard Replacement Steps
Sebastian Ramirez replied to Sebastian Ramirez's topic in Alienware 18 and M18x
Okay thanks again! -
Hi everyone, I finally purchased my new motherboard for my Alienware 18, and want to replace it... Do I have to do anything software-related, or bios changes before or after the swap? I also bought a new CMOS battery, all it takes is to replace it physically or I must do something on the bios also? Thanks for help
-
I understand, thanks so much for the info sliderfra
-
Okay, thanks
-
Good afternoon, So I found this heatsink for my future GTX1070 MXM for my Alienware 18, but its for the right side of the motherboard, will the laptop work properly, if I install the GPU on the right side? (this heatsink only fits for the GPU in the right side) Thx
