    Dell don't use same firmware for all their notebook models. But the new Alienware OC Controls is for most of their models. I expect some will soon post their results.

    Not yet. I am sure 1.5.0 will work fine again. Just trying to figure out 1.7.3

    Latest driver from nVidia. Looks like someone else with 1.7.3 is having same issue on the Area-51m thread once they hit 80C as well...

    Are you on 1.7.3?

    I am, but I am on driver 431.69 from Dell. NEVER install drivers from nVIDIA on an Alienware

    The Alienware models sound like they have too many issues. I am glad I went with Dell G7 instead - no issues with Nvidia drivers, I just download everything from Nvidia's own site and it works. No issues with GPU throttling until it reaches 87c.

    Didn't help. Might just go back to 1.5.0 if I even can. Every BIOS after 1.5.0 seems to be crap
