the chassis alone makes the machine impossible to use as it reaches temps that can and have burned the skin!!!!Īcer Aspire AS7745G-6572 core i7 720qm overheating? If you need hard facts to make your purchase decision, I can and will supply temperature readings of the CPU core and laptop case/chassis. Unfortunately, those were built before Dell got too big and greedy.īuying that machine will be a mistake.
I have no bones to pick with Dell as I still have half a dozen of their machines in my immediate family. I have wasted 80+ hours on this current Studio 1558 issue alone.ĭo not make an expensive mistake and buy that machine. For slightly more, you can get a far better machine.Ģ) Dell's customer and technical support quality has plummeted to new lows since I started buying their machines and recommending them to clients. DO NOT get sucked into their problem by falling for a low sale price. I've been researching other manufacturer's models and, after being a loyal Dell customer for nearly 10 years, am looking at ASUS, Toshiba and Samsung.ġ) Coming from 15 years of IT experience, avoid the Dell Studio line.
Dell has admitted to this in their Bios Update A06.ĭell hasn't been able to resolve the heat issue for me yet. The current Dell laptop case design doesn't allow for proper cooling of the I7 CPU. In fact, I have had 4 such machines in the past 7 weeks. I have that same machine but in a 15" model. I doubt about only one thing that this Core i7 720QM has a clock frequency of 1.6Ghz would this affect the performance, as compared to a 2Ghz Core i5 or Core2Duo? coz if i go for a Corei5 or Core2Duo, i get more of RAM plus more Graphics memory.Īnd one more thing, does this 1.6Ghz is for individual core i.e. (i.e keyboard and mousepad should be friendly) a lot of coding as i am an engg student.
