Well I took this picture for a laugh.

Dell sent me out my new e1705 today and guess what, the fan is broken . . it wont go above 1928 rpms so the speedstep wont enable obviously, My cpu was IDLING at 58 DEGREES CELCIUS!!!!!!

Anyways they are comming out friday with a new cpu fan to install because they screwed up , anyways , I wanted to use my computer without problems. So I kinda got my own fan for the lappy until they come friday . . I hope you get a laugh . .

THIS IS MY Laptop Cooler!



and the specs . . .



Btw Im running 25 degrees C right now haha. Have a nice night guys.

Just waiting for the first idiot to say that his fan is too loud to be practical and not care to read why he's doing it. =)

Btw, pretty hardcore just to play with your laptop comfortably. =)

Sooo... you're not getting huge amounts of EMI from that fan? Isn't there a large electromagnet in it?

I cant immagine that huge electomagnet under right under your computer is making your hardware last longer

The notebook's speedstep has nothing to do with the fan. It should still be downclocking normally.

acctually it does . .

when it gets hot enough and notices that the fan should go on medium or high, and it trys to run that speed and the fan just shuts off, the mother board must have a built in feature that keeps the clock low if it cant run that temp. Without having this fan on the computer, it was pulling 58-62 degree cpu temps. CELCIUS!! I used this fan to just bring down idle temps to 20 degrees and I shut off the lappy, its been sitting since.

When It was cooling down on the fan I stress tested it, as long as temps were low enough it would only use the low setting of the fan, which it is capable of, and it speedstepped up to 1.83 ghz.

But, if the temps moved to the next catagory it would require the medium fan setting or high fan setting which was not available due to a malfunction, so it reverted to only low clock setting. . .

hahaha thanks. And those concerned about electromagnetics the lappy was on that fan for about 3 minutes to cool down and run two tests to verify my claims. I will bring home a gauss meter tommorow and check the magnetic field for all you just for currosity. (im an junior in electrical engineering at University of Illinois)

What program is that your using to monitor temp? Can you post a link where to download this program?

i9kfangui , they say not to use it yet for the dual core. I just did it to get some quick temps. Search on this forum and you will find a dl for it and more info.

I'm still standing by what i say. Speedstep is put into effect when there is an application that requires more cpu power. When the notebook is idling, it clocks down untill the power is needed. The heat of the processor has no effect at what speed the processor runs at.

If what you say is true, please explain why the only way he can get his laptop to not run at 999MHz (even while running superpi in "always on" mode) is to put it on the big fan and get the temperature lower.

FYI most modern chips have a temperature throttling system in place. (sometimes it's a downclock, sometimes a shut off)

I would just get a bluetooth keyboard and Mouse and duct tape the lappy to your windshield of your car flat open face in and have your friends take you out on the highway......
