Turbo boost would usually be reason enough for me. I suppose the question is, do you want performance or do you want visual quality. Your answer there will determine if you want the marginal increase from the i5 or the 1080p anti glare

Thank you for your help by the way Brett, it's very much appreciated!

The exact model is as in the topic, HP Pavilion G6-1204sa It's got an AMD Fusion A6-3400m, 6GB DDR3, 15.6". Generic decent laptop really.

Sorry forgot to mention that, yes I've recemented. I've even tried a silver-based cement! BIOS registered on average the same 24-26

Exactly as Azn Cracker said, the battery life will be horrendous. However if you want to think about making it portable.. check out battdepot.com for your model and see if they make a lithium imide (li-imide) battery for it. I bought a huge 12 cell one for my laptop and its absolutely...

To be perfectly honest.. if I ever suggested the i3 system to a customer over the i5 system for gaming, I'd quite my job and go into a forest to prepare for the zombie apocolypse.

Hi Brett, Thanks for your reply! Yes I'm positive it's not overheating, I used the normal methods from a thermal imaging camera to an infra-red thermometer. The temperatures idling with no fan spinning are fairly acceptable. WITH the fan hitting 100% the core of the laptop sits @ 24degrees...

Don't forget to make sure the connection has the same poles (depending on your laptop it can be positive (+) in the middle and negative (-) on the outside or the other way around entirely)

Hey folks. I'm an L2 IT Engineer myself but for the life of me can't find a solution to this issue. My laptops fan is at a constant 100%. It's driving me nuts. When I bought it, it was fine, as soon as the warranty expires..? Boom. Fan @ 100% constantly. Now I've managed to narrow down the cause...
