As I'm typing this on my MSI Apache with the 17" screen, I can tell you, in absolute honesty, that this is the coolest running laptop I've ever owned...despite its incredible power. I had some initial problems with my first MSI computer, purchased from Best Buy. After two appearances at the Geek Squad desk they managed to resolve the issues I had with my original 15.6" screen MSI Apache with this new computer. It's been terrific. It truly is an absolutely COOL laptop (I'm speaking of temperature here). My previous high-powered gaming computer was an ASUS and I couldn't run it for any length of time without a cooling pad. I've opened the computer case to install a 1 terrabyte solid state m.2 drive. You would not believe the heat sink in this unit. It's incredible and impressive! I've had this computer on for at least 9 straight hours and it's absolutely cool to the touch without a cooling pad. I don't know who mentioned that it ran "hot" but this has been the absolute opposite of my experience. I love this laptop!
