    just got my 1721. Going to be running some benches and whatnot soon, but wanted to get some insight from those of you that have your laptop already. I dont want to download different software to find different temps. What 2 programs have given you the closest to what you would call "just about right". I forgot the thread listing some software names.

    Thanks.

    Hey I use I8kfanGUI. It gives you the temps for your processor/GPU/memory/HDD, and you are able to control your fans. Great program.

    I believe it's for the Inspiron models only.
