    Hi. new poster to the dell part of the forums, but anyways heres the problem.

    I've been having overheating problems on the laptop and have told dell about this.... They want to replace it with the same thing, but due to the bad things im hearing about the nvidia cards im not sure if i want another.

    So basically i was wondering if you guys knew a way to get around them just giving me the same thing again. (Ive had for about 2 and a bit months btw)

    Thanks
    Tom

    The nVidia cards that have been released in the past few days or weeks, depending on who you listen to, are (according to Dell and nVidia) not faulty. I ordered mine on the 7th, and haven't received it, but will report back on how the card is. Hope this helps.
