16X Aurora AC16251, is Element 31 or liquid metal used?

The Alienware 16X Aurora uses Element 31, which is a gallium-silicone liquid metal thermal interface material. It's used on both the CPU and GPU to improve cooling performance by reducing thermal resistance.

Thanks for the update!

If I use a laptop stand for desk, does the laptop need to be placed flat on the stand? If the laptop is positioned at an inclined angle for an extended period, could this result in an uneven distribution of Element 31, thereby reducing thermal performance?

Thank you.
