    Dell E6330 Temperature problem (?)

    Hello
    I have 2x E6330 in bench, one with i7 and one with i5
    I notice the fan on i7 goes full very often, even with the shortest process while on i5 goes full more rarely.
    I attached 2 screenshots from CPU Temp with all details while in action (on i7 i have seen max temp of 103 Celsius but not this time)
    Thermal paste cleaned and replaced, also exchanged the heatsinks from one to the other just in case one of them is faulty, same results.
    Is this normal behavior because of the onboard (not socketed) i7?
    Thank you in advance!

      It's normal. You have a M series soldered CPU which is basically a socketed CPU without the socket and uses the same amount of power. And you have it in a thinner shell with less cooling capability.

      You can use ThrottleStop to undervolt it some, if you can afford the time to stability test afterwards.

          Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
          by Bowline
          My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

          Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

          My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
          The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
          I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

          Dell Pro 13 Plus PB13250 Bios Unlock
          by Akhlz001
          Hi,

          Could someone help trying to unlock this BIOS, seems that Dell have changed the layout of new Dell Pro 8FC8 bioses from checking HXD - 4000 bits do not need changing, only 2000. However after FF the section starting from '01000' upto 2000 bits and then soldering the chip back it seems that the microchip on the motherboard is recovering the bios back to original settings after first boot. Has anyone found a way to crack this extra layer of security Dell have implemented? Seems both HP and Dell have upped bios security to match Lenovo by implementing extra measures on a separate...

          Dell Inspiron 5590 Board 18778-1 no charging, charging not possible
          by master3112
          I would like to share my experience about charging issues with Dell power supplies with the tech community. I am working on a Dell Inspiron 5590, Mainboard 18778-1 with charging problems. The device can be switched on and works so far, only the message appears at startup:

          Alert! The AC power adapter wattage and Type cannot be determined. The battery may not change. The System will adjust the performace to match the power available.

          The power supply unit is not recognized in the Bios and the charging process is set to "idle". I use original Dell battery, type...
