@@rickstechrepairs nahhh I don`t hope to overcklock, mi gpu is a 1660ti Max Q supposedly runing at stock 1300 mhz, but I have already downlvolted -150mv stable and with the cpu limmited at at 2.5 gz My GPU is usually at 1520 ish (not bad) with 78 C, while gaming. I did notice the screen block`s the exhaust and that is just bad design, but, it was REALLY CHEAP MACHINE!!! (around $800 dollars :D), so i`m looking to further lower the temps, to see if maybe runing cooler it can reach 1600-1700 Mhz. I was planning to replace the paste, but to tell you the truth, I saw your video, and, it dosn`t seem DELL went cheap on there... so I`m looking on the internet to see if there are any gains, so far no luck :(

@@odynzeyez6259 it was a black friday discount :D by the way still running amazingly good, I made a special colling pad with a chinese power supply and some Omega 24 V 0.5 amp 24 i fans and installed bug mesh in between... runs soo cool. for gaming I lower the memory around 500 and the core speed goes up to stable 1.8 ghz. most games run better this way as the lower mem speed frees up power room for the gpu to go higher. and when not gaming?, it is mining eth with a porfit, and powering a 65 inch TV at the same time. dell makes good machines I must admit. Bottom line, make a cooling pad. if you want ideas I can send you my pad pics and specs for you to build it yourself :) By the way Im #1 in 3dmark with my processor/GPU last time I checked (i5 9300h with score of 5 548 ). so yes, I tested a lot this model ;)

I replaced my thermal paste on my g3 and everything was fine, I monitored the temps for a bit and it wasn't raising at idle. I started playing a game and 10 minutes into it the computer shut off and haven't been able to start it ever since. Any suggestions on what to do? If it was a short wouldn't it not start up in the first place? Or if it overheated wouldn't it start up after the computer cooled off, or should be a blue screen saying it's overheating?

Hi! after doing this my laptop wont turn on. No charging led no fan spin. The first time I tried to power it on I saw the charging port led blinking white, but only once it was too fast for me to see the pattern. Tried Taking out the Bios coin battery, disconnecting the main battery and holding power for a couple of minutes. I checked voltage from charger and from battery and both are good even plugged to laptop I do not see any voltage drops. Does any one has an advice of what I am doing wrong? now I ill just connect to the charger for a couple of hours that the battery was completely dead. Help! I am running out of ideas.

Hi. I would do the following Disconnect battery Remove CMOS battery Remove ram Plug in power See if it will give a post error (which should relate back to no memory installed) If it does produce an error, then the board is actually "thinking" I would also go through all the connections on the board around the cooler + remove the cooler to see if excess thermal paste has gone on the capacitors or the board

@@rickstechrepairs Hi Rick thank you for the replay! Nothing seemed to work, so in a last attempt I disconnect everything, even the connectors I didn't touched, clean the paste, give a good air blow to all components, and connect them again repaste, take out bios Battery, unplugged main battery, drain any static charge by holding power button, plugged batteries and it showed life signs! After a couple of power on attempts (blinking keyboard) it started normally, to be honest I do not know what was it or if I was doing the Static purge wrong. But hope this will be useful for other people. Now with this and a -140mv undervolt it rarely throttles and temps are around 80C at max load. (previously 100c even with undervolt) and without undervolt around 90C (good 10 degrees less) and clock speeds are more stable rarely doping from 3.98Hz, while before they where everywhere from 3.2 Hz to 4.0Hz. Thanks Rick Tech!

I also updated to win 11, I haven't applied new thermo paste in over a year and temps seem fine. So I will disassemble it and clean it and maybe add new paste. The normal maintenance. But to be honest it seems really sketchy from dell laptop feels still hot but temps are way lower, but who knows they might be alright.
