striker2413 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 depending on room temperature, I believe that is normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomJGX Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 That's pretty normal... Nothing to be worried about... Mine idles at those temps too and this is with a 3940XM... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mw86 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Those temps are very normal because of the fact Alienware/Dell seems to stock a very quiet fan profile but causes us higher temps under load and at idle. The fans wont really get going much at all audibly till around 80c. If temps get bad under load may I suggest HWiNFO for fan control Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About that...I recently replaced the thermal compound with arctic cooling mx2 and tested it with IntelBurnTest on maximum stress at all cores and the temps didnt reached 80 C....so i think it is good. But it still idles at 50 C.And i aslo puted thermal pads on the 4 big and 2 small semiconductors near the CPU. I saw that in an Eurocom videos. they say it helps.
