Title: Awesome Laptop
Review: I purchased one of these back in 2007 and it is still running strong. Yes there is a video card issue with them. They need to be on flat free from debris, table clothes, and other stuff that will limit air flow. I have only had to bake my video card once and replaced the thermal pads on the CPU and GPU with artic silver with no further issues. Also get the I8K GUI software to control your fans and monitor your CPU and GPU so you know when it is time to service it yourself. This laptop is highly serviceable and the documentation has always been available from Dell. The only downside is that you do need to clean it and replace the thermal paste periodically due to the amount of heat that is created from running this powerhouse. I recommend replacing the hard drive with a Solid state unit since it is blazing fast then and extends the battery time to something realistic. The standard battery time while gaming is only 45 min due to the awesome graphics and processing.
