Hello everyone, I bought a XPS 1530 in January 08 and I'm concerned about the heat it generates. By using I8kfanGUI, it shows that when idle, my CPU are about 40C, GPU around 50C and Memory around 55C! I think the memory is way too hot and when playing COD4 after a while, the logs states that my memory's peak temp is at 102C, so I also get some performance issues.

Furthermore, I don't know why but after playing UT3 for 10mins, my laptop automatically shuts off, I'm not sure if its a overheating problem because I can boot up right away, no error messages.

 

So I would like to have some feedback and some suggestions regarding the type of cooling product (fan, etc) I could buy. Thank you very much
