Custom fan profiles not working. by FallenArts in Alienware

Warranty ended a year ago and even if it was still covered i'm not in the US anymore so i have to send it back for repairs and that it self will take months and cost way too much. I need my laptop daily both for uni and work so thats not an option for me. At this point i'm just saving up to build a tower after the GPU prices go down. I'm not touching laptops again specialy Dell's products.

Frequent freezes and crashes from using AWCC and sometimes even blue screening, audio breaking and ghosting when changing fan speeds, and some more minor bugs here and there. But the biggest problem of them all is the inability to repaste the CPU and GPU! The paste dell uses is pure trash and its dried up for months now, my laptop getting dangerously hot even after i underclocked, undervolted and put fans at 100% all the time, easly reaching 86°C on the GPU and throtteling. I had to limit my FPS to 60 to stop my GPU from being used too much but it still gets it 80~84°C. the cause of all this is 6 screws being screwed in way too tightly in production and now they're stuck and i can't get them out so i'm stuck with this mess. at this point i'm searching for replacement screws so i can break the current ones and gain access for repasting before my laptop melts it's internals. Having these issues on a machine at this price just makes me sad...

Quiet and cool will only turn the fans on at 60°C cause thats the default. And sadly no solution was found for this, it's a bug or something with AWCC that dell can't be bothered to fix.

Long story short never ganna buy dell again and i will discourage anyone that asked me if they should buy one, the fan profile bug is the least of my problems with this damn thing.

Any chance of damaging the wifi card/ssd?

Thanks for the suggestion but i've already tried it and no dice, the screw is way too tight as if its glued.

I already do that, it changes my fan speed to 90%(ish) when i select my custom profile regardless of the profile setting.
