HP IS JOKING WITH ME..
I purchased dv6-6121tx last year (november) from flipkart, and upgraded to the 2yr care pack.
The first 2 months my temps were:
Idle :~35-40 deg
Hardcore Gaming: ~78-82 deg
I live in an area where there's a lot of dust floating around, So my temps started rising a lil bit.
Once the temps crossed 90 deg, I thought it's time to test the HP onsite service.
The engg visited my home (He was from sysnet), He replaced the thermal module(fan), but when he was assembling the lappy back, he broke one of the locks of the base enclosure (The grey round corner on top left side of the base)
I noticed it a few weeks later, and called customer care, fortunately, they agreed to replace the base enclosure. (This time the engg was from Intarvo)
A few days ago my temps started rising again, so I called the cust care, they ordered a new thermal part, but this time, wrong part was ordered, when the engg came to my home, he tried to install the new fan, but it simply won't fit.
So he says he'll have to reorder the correct part. A few days later he visits my site again, and guess what, HP SENT THE WRONG PART AGAIN.
Guys it happened 4 times in a row...yes 4 TIMES the wrong thermal module has been delivered....My laptop's fan isn't spinning at all since 22 June, 2012 (ERROR 90B, some of you must be aware of it).
Finally the engg took a snap of the part installed in my laptop and sent it to HP. and now I am waiting for the replacement of thermal module. The engg is expected to arrive on 10th July.
On the brighter side, even when the fan isn't spinning at ALL, my laptop hasn't shut down even once
even while gaming (BF3, GTA 4)
. The max temp recorded while gaming at 0% fan activity is 95 deg (TjMax=100deg)
