the tjmax for the cpu is 105c, but it will underclock itself before it reaches that temp. I'm not sure about the gpu...

I got refund in 12 days, I think replacement will take 7-8 days max, that's what the cc told me.....



.....

Will I need to give my laptop to them while they get a new one or do I get to keep it during the time?

^^ the difference is 8k, not 10k, and the price difference is totally justified.......the dell 15r se i5 with 4gb ram costs 50,990, the same one with i7 and 8gb ram costs 59,990..and it does not include blu-ray, just changing the ram and procy increased the price by 9k. if you're not planing to use the blu-ray or do any intense video rendering, get the i5....

Hi, Thanks for the reply.
Everybody I've contacted said the dire is BluRay Writer. Is that true ?
If yes, it's really VFM.
... Thanks & Regards

Just now I talked to service center guys about the battery backup. I said in 80%0charge its giving 3hrs backup without touching anything. If I will use it will give 2 1/2hr. This is what they said, "sir, 3hrs backup is normal for laptop". I am totally pissed off now. Now I think visiting service center will be waste of time. They will keep the laptop and will return it as it was before.

Hi,
Your job is highly appreciated!
I was just worrying about the native HDD speed of 5400rpm on it.
After knowing the greatness of SSD and your post, one of my important queries is answered.
May I know the price of SSD you bought ?

The only doubt left is can it write BluRay discs ? Everybody said Yes ( including Samsung and Flipkart.com) except you in previous reply.
Still I want to confirm from the owners of NP550p5c-s02in with Ci7.

Thanks & Regards

KIND ATTENTION THE OWNERS OF NP550PC5-S02IN

Hi,
1. Can any owner of NP550PC5-S02IN with Ci7 and BD Drive confirm that it can write BD.
2. Can the resolution be full HD (1920x1080p) if we use full HD external monitor or TV ?

... Thanks & Regards

bro I feel 3hrs for 80% is nothing to worry about, how much are you getting with 100% charge?

@da4u ... i connected to my hdtv... when i keep full hd resolution....in windows(browsing,movie,etc).. the screens are not properly fit ie they extend out ! But when i play a game (ie Using nvdia- full HD resolution) the screen propely fits in tv.... So how can i use the Nvdia for windows by default also> for browsing/watching movies/etc ...i cant seem to add vlc/gom player in Nvdia settings :/

bdw.. temps are around 95 :chinscratch: without limiting cpu.... for mw 3.

pls anybody

Tj max is 105 C(For i5 3210M & i7-3610QM). It means that ur lap will turn off on its own when ur cpu reaches that temp.... thereby preventing damage.

O.E.Ms configure their B.I.O.S in such a way that this temp(tj max) is not reached. So they under clock ur Cpu/Gpu as they near their Tj maxs. that is when throttling occurs.

I think high temp level acceptable is the Tj max.
