The XPS is a high-end laptop with some of Amazon's best specs, and it’s also one of its hottest models. If you’re planning on purchasing an XPS, we recommend keeping it in an area without long periods of exposure to high temperatures or humidity. Otherwise, you risk damaging your computer and voiding your warranty. It gets hot because it uses powerful components like Intel Core i7 processors and Nvidia graphics cards. These features are great if you need a fast machine for gaming or editing photos, but they generate a lot of heat, damaging your laptop if not correctly managed. Many customers report that their XPS stopped working after a few years of use. However, you can avoid these issues by keeping your computer in an air-conditioned room with plenty of ventilation.
