I've seen that happen a lot with new computers it seems to be pretty normal so no worries. Just do what he said and it should work after that.

There is another thread that you should look into they had the same price range as you did. http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2875515/good-school-gaming-laptop-1000.html

I wouldn't recommend Alienware as they get really hot and you are basically just paying for the logo. With 1000 you can honestly build a decent desktop, but if you do prefer the portability of a laptop then maybe ask your brother where he got his.

Thank you! If you have any other questions feel free to ask.

No problem, if you need anymore help I'll try my best to help you. If this solved your issue mark this as solved.

Well, the temps seem to be okay from the picture above, for now I'd just keep an eye on your laptop and make sure it's not what's causing the burning smell.

I meant to the 511 C lol

Yeah, that doesn't look right.

Also here you go this was used for another thread and people liked it. http://openhardwaremonitor.org/

Well, i guess problem solved for the time being. If anything worse happens or if you continue to notice the burning smell after you have no other explanation then id bring it back to the store.

Well, usually if a laptop was overheating it would shut off after using it for awhile or fairly quickly while gaming. Just check around the laptop see if you can see any problems like melted plastic or anything like that. If it does start shutting off or running slow then I'd get pretty worried...

While you have it on your lap would you say you are covering up any of the vents or feel a lot of heat on your lap?

What kind of surface do you set the laptop on while you game? Also is the fan still working?
