WTF? has everyone got insane or lost their minds?
Post it on tweeter n fb. n every del..US UK AUS etc. see whats their reaction on this.
Now say that your laptop shutdowns immediately after using for 10mins 7 temperature crosses 100c. Create such serious stories. And tell them being a loyal dell customer for past 5-6yrs is this the way you treat us n etc etc...
I just did that and saw your post
. Actually this is my 4th dell laptop
What..?
Would you getting on the logs of CoreTEMP, while gaming...?
Yeah I have , he told it's not required to show him as the temp falls below 100C, WTF!!
Seems like I am running out of luck
Transcript from Intel US support chat:

info: You are now chatting with 'Dietmar S'
Dietmar S: Hello. Thank you for using the Intel Customer Chat Support service. We are glad to be of service. How may I help you?
: Hello, I have a question.
: I have a dell laptop with i5 2430m processor
Dietmar S: Hello Guneshwor how can I help you ?
Dietmar S: Yes
: While running games, the core temp of my processor reaches 99C , is it safe?
Dietmar S: One moment
: Sure, and during normal operations , the temp is usually 55-60C
Dietmar S: The operating temperature is 100C for this CPU
Dietmar S: Here is a link to the website with the information
Dietmar S: http://ark.intel.com/products/53450/Intel-Core-i5-2430M-Processor-(3M-Cache-up-to-3_00-GHz)
: I know that. But that temp range is critical and may possibly cause my processor to fail soon. Am I assuming correctly?
Dietmar S: I can only tell you that the specified operating temperature for this CPU is 100 C , so 99 is well within specifiactions
: So should I not be concerned about the situation ?
: I hope when my warranty ends, it doesnt fail.
Dietmar S: If you are concerned about this then I would suggest to contact the manufacturer of the laptop.
: I did, but they ignored me as it falls below the Tj max of the processor.
Dietmar S: That is because it is within the normal operating temperature of the CPU
: Okay, then I wont be able to do anything for that
Dietmar S: No this is as expected
: Thanks anyways Dietmar
Dietmar S: Is there anything else I can do for you ?
: No thats all
