First the product - yes its wicked cool, or rather wicked quiet, and will cost you your house. Temps are pretty standard.

Now all is cool until you try to overclock it, and I kid you not this is the recomended setup in the manual!!!!

Enermax. And shitty as hell. I cut myself at least 5 times building it and the tabs on the left door bent whilst it was laying on the side of my bed for about 30 mins. The sticker on it says "aluminum" but its mostly steel.....

The cool thing about it is the bezel. That's all. And a lot of fan locations.

Actually, when I was at Dartmouth during summer camp my laptop (on loan from my dad) loved to overheat. So, what did I do?

I stuck a fan perpendicular to the ground and placed the laptop on it. Then, I set the fan to "high." Never had a problem with overheating again.

cheers, and
