A:AnswerI originally got this laptop in May, havent had heating issues. Sure they tend to be abnormal but for the specs the cooling is pretty great. Though ive heard murmurs and read online about undervolting and such with the included Armory Crate or other programs like MSI Afterburner.
A:AnswerI'm not 100% but you buy open box at your own risk. Best buy doesn't check for any hardware modifications that could void the original manf warranty. Whatever warrenty best buy provides for open box items is likely all you will get.

A:AnswerBoth nvme slots support the same speed. I'd keep the OS on the installed slot and add into the empty for all your programs/games. I don't remember the speed of the SSD installed but I bought Samsung 970evo plus and it's definitely faster.
A:AnswerSerial number beginning:
M means year 2021.
N means year 2022.
For 21 year, The number is the month of manifacturing.
So, N4 has been manifactured in April 2022.
Mine is MANRK and on the bottom of laptop it is 10 2021.. No clue how that works out.
Try to get one that starts with N you can see the serial on the side of th box without opening.. only the date can be actuallly seen on the bottom of the laptop itself.

It will utilize the same technology as the current Gen. gaming consoles, when paired with a capable graphics card RTX or Radeon is a win-win situation. The 5900HX is great but personally I didn't see this coming and would be a fan of the next rendition. If they do continue to re-stock the price point is still an awesome plus!!! Great Value!
