> There was another Intel related issue with this laptop also; the gpu would freeze/panic intermittently, multiple times a day. I had this on my Dell XPS13 (9310) as well, although in my case it was a few times a week, maybe .5 times a day. It also seemed to almost always trigger when kwin was animating something, particularly switching to another virtual desktop, but never when playing any games. I can't imagine why, but the problem mostly went away when I turned off all animations in kwin, and seems to have gone away completely sometime about a year or so ago. All in all, it's still a better experience than the Macbook Air I was using prior to having this XPS13... That damn Macbook loved to vomit onto the screen and lock up without warning. No dust, thermals seemed fine, battery was healthy... no clue what was wrong with it. And without many exposed settings to fiddle with.
