I wonder if I get the heatsink from the XPS 7590 i9 version, could I fit that to my XPS 9560, perhaps they still used the same motherboard layout?

My Inspiron 7590 has the i5-9300H processor and came with a heat sink with vrm cooling. With a repaste of the heat sink with A quality paste, the machine runs long builds of software with full 4 core load at 100% at the full turbo speed continuously. It is at 97-98 degrees then... They do seem to have tackled it in more than just the high end laptops

Well at least they finally put a thermal pad on the PCH. God they are cheap and lazy.

Hey, I think you mixed things up at the end. The final picture caption shows i7 for both when the bottom one should be i9. At least as far as I know

They're so cheap considering the asking price for the XPS line and their problems. Disappointing.

Can you please measure the temperatures on those exposed VRMs when you got an i5 or i7 to see if they are indeed heating up? Do we still need to pad the rest?

Contrary to Dell's service manual, not all XPS 15 7590 machines come with the same heatsink. Only the Core i9 models appear to have full VRM cooling, with Dell equipping the other SKUs with a slightly lesser cooler. As its predecessors demonstrated, all XPS 15 need active VRM cooling, so why the penny-pinching Dell?
