First thing to do when M18x arrives

I know this isn't really on topic - but I just got my monster machine in Dec 2011 and I'd like to know where I can check the GPU's temps. CCC doesn't seem to be so revealing.

So, far so good no CTD or shutdowns due to heat problems (BIOS A05) - everything runs smooth and seemingly cool.

 

use GPU-Z, should do the trick Bradleyjs

 

Roger that - thanks..

 

Where do i get Alienrespawn? My order doesnt come with it

 

It's installed on all new systems from the factory. You can not get it or add it if it was not installed. Dell outlet refurbished systems do not come with it, unless they are New Build not refurb then they have it installed also. Hope that helps.

 

Thanks for the reply . And btw does anyone know whats the best driver for GTX 580 atm?

 

actually it depends on the games you play. i for one use the latest official drivers from nvidia.

 

i play battlefield 3

 

First thing anybody should do is wipe the drool from their mouth. Second open the box. You do not want to get saliva on your m18x.

 

and take pictures (or video) of unboxing
if anything is wrong then you better have evidence
