    Hi!
    1.I sold my alienware laptop to buy a clevo P771zm with a desktop cpu it will be I7 4790 (without K), and I cant find a thread that explains how to get rid of the high temp.
    I used on my alienware Coolaboratory Ultra that made miracles, so good TIM, but this is a desktop cpu, did somebody use it, wich is the best for this cpu in this laptop?
    2. To not make 2 threads, witch drivers should I use? the ones on clevo.com 8.1 64 bit? should I make any updates of bios or something? or just install thouse drivers?
    Thank you

    Ultra will be fine, but do define 'high temp'. Aside from repaste; undervolt with XTU or ThrotteStop. For bios, see Prema.

    You may have to use Fn + 1 to force max fan speeds to get the temps you're after.

    Anyway, 80°C is fine, but good paste job and undervolt will easily get you that -5°C.
