I don't trust in these laptop stands. And I don't like their idea too, I like the portability, and not wearing one more thing with me. I've tried to play without it's bottom service door, and the temps dropped with 5-6 degrees. But I don't like this idea too. I hope that, this week, when my thermal conductiv adhesive comes, the cooling mod will do it's job. I'm asking again - have anyone tried with another fan ? The stock one doesn't seem good.

By the way - the DELL E6320 has worse display. I've order epoxy thermal adhesive - Thermopox 85TC with 7.5W/m-K conductivity (Arctic Alumina has 9W), and when it comes, I'm doing the copper coins cooling mod. I've played World of Tanks, and in 26 degreesh Celsius, the GPU went up to 97 degrees. I've changed the thermal paste with CM E1 Essentials (not from the best, but relatively cheap and on par with AC MX-2). The temperature dropped to 91-92 degrees. This is obviously not enough. I'm wondering something - I saw the stock cooling fan - it is like a joke. Did somebody try some different fan ? I see that there are fans with more blades, with different design. I'm in the process of looking for another one to try. I've read in a Dell forum, where Alienware users tried different fans, with different air displacement (from 2 CFM up to 10), and they had temp drops from 3 to 6 degrees.

well, my 2570p came today, very fresh condition, no visual damage. I like it very much ! This is my first HP. I've had multimedia Lenovos, Thinkpads, I currently have an ASUS RoG G750, and now this little baby. I like the sturdiness, the materials. The thing I don't like - the noisy cooling fan (I've read some posts for undervolting the fan, using resistors, but what happens with the cooling efficiency of the fan ?). And the SSD - it's obviously an OEM Samsung 470 series 128 gigs, with terrible 250 *official read speeds (my OCZ Vertex on my ASUS provides tested 510 MB/s read), and no Samsung support for OEM SSDs (I cant use Samsung Magician software to upgrade my firmware). I'm having troubles installing hard drive drivers (stuck on Microsoft ones from year 2006). I like the grip of the keyboard buttons - they feel nice to the touch. I've installed one stick of 4GB 1600mhz memory, temporarily, untill I find the earlier mentioned G.Skill Ripjaws in the thread. So - can I lower the noise of the fan, without lowering it's cooling efficiency?

Oh well, I've ordered today one 2570p with i5-3360M, 4gigs ram and 128 gigs SSD. If everything is alright, I want to try some faster ram and one more ssd for raid-0. Can you tell if, the 2133mhz G.Skill Ripjaws, run on the i5 ? If not, which faster rams run on this cpu ? I will search for faster cpus later on.

Hello everyone, My name is Ivan, I'm from Bulgaria. My hobbies are PC hardware, gaming to some extend, photography, and cars (I'm participating in the drift series here in my country). I feel sorry I haven't found this forum before, because it is full of quality information, and the community seems nice.

Hey guys! I've been reading recently everything I can find, regarding Elitebook 2570p and DELL E6330, and I am having trouble, deciding which one will do the job. I like the smaller form factor of the 2570p, but as I read, i found out that, the Dell is more prone to overclocking. I want to try the eGPU project, get some 2133mhz Ripjaws, raid-0 striping for ssds, and eventually change the cpu (it's pretty hard to find a 3rd gen mobile i7 quad). I'm concerned about the space allocation for the HP, since I read that, without DSDT override, it can't be done. Or is it doable? I hope for more plug-n-play hardware. I like the Beast adapter, it's price and design too. And it is easier to obtain one, where I live. I surely like the design of the HP more. But Tech Inferno Fan has moved to a 6440, which is giving me a headache deciding, which is better I don't think I'll try the x2 2.0 pci-e, I want an Expresscard adapter. Sorry for the bad english, it's not my primary language. Thanks in advance.
