“Does the GU501 take in air from the bottom, such that it would benefit from a cooling pad underneath? Are the side vents drawing air in, or pushing hot air out? Also, what brand of touchpad does it have? Is it Synaptics? Thanks!”

Answering my own question. Yes, it takes in air on the bottom through vents; and, yes, you can therefore benefit from using a cooling pad underneath. The side and back vents are all pushing the hot air out. The touchpad brand is Elantech, specifically ELAN1201.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It actually pulls in cool air from the small holes located just above the keyboard buttons and expels hot air from the sides. https://www.asus.com/us/Laptops/ROG-GU501/
