Who wants to party with me and my NP8180

Sooooooo, My NP8180 is over heating in every way

I want to upgrade my GPUs from dual 6990m to a single GTX780m and my CPU from 2860qm to 2960xm and heat is a huge problem for me so i am getting the CM F-19 with some IC diamond and new Heat pads for the rest of the GPU but the question is can i upgrade the GPU + CPU heat sinks are there any Custom made heat sinks? does any NP8180 Owner know of such a thing? because the heat sinks are not acceptable for a 100W GPU.

What kind of thermal pads should i get? and one last question is it possible to change the laptop fans to some better ones?

 

What kind of temperatures were you seeing? The 6990's did have a history of getting pretty hot as did the 580m and 485m.

Have you tried to see if your fans are still effectively working and making sure they are clean?

 

Yes i just cleaned the laptop 3 days ago (While cleaning it every two weeks on a regular) and i just changed the TIM to IC24 which i found with a friend

While gaming i hit low 90s on a regular,high 80s on some games and 102 on Dota 2 and Hitman. this is all on a single GPU while the other is laying out side of the laptop

 

So i want to ask as i am not Able to post in the price check forums how much can i get for my NP8180?

One more question which is better Selling it as a whole machine or parting it out?

 

Depends how in demand parts are, with that machine probably not a huge amount. Sales do need to be made in the members market though.

 

I know but this is the only way i can get inquires about the machine so any ideas?

 

Well my guess is not much, I would write most of it off.
