I do not recommend using it on your lap, after all it is a gaming laptop. I got one. Laptop sucks air from underneath and expels the hot air thru their side vents. By puting it on your lap you could cover one of the intakes underneath by mistake. This laptop needs all is vent free and clear of obstructions. So far mine have not gotten hot, although I got it set in a way that it sitting 2 inches from the surface that is sitting on right now. I have yet to test a good demanding game on it, but I tested Skyrim and Bioshock Infinite on everything ultra setting and it did not even tickle the laptop. Make sure that you have 2 available plugs on your surge protector. This laptop is a double power brick, (each with its own power cord to plug into ac power) that in turn are joined together into one plug at the end via an included adapter in order to provide the power needed for this beefy laptop.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
