Have not had a problem with the heat, but I will say that surface is not the best to the laptop because it is not sticky, wood like surface is a bit slippery.

There is barely any noise from this laptop and I love that. It does get warm though but only as warm as expected, not hot, and only during gaming. It stays at roughly room temp during desktop use.

Not always...laptops are meant to run at high temperatures...even up to 90 degrees Celsius. But it is common knowledge that heat it bad and cool is always good. You can test to see if it helps but more often than not, a cooler isnt needed. Internal fans keep laptops at a set temperature(if you think like a fan in a car). I hope this helps you out.

Mine gets really hot, that has never been a problem. It actually gets hotter that I had anticipated.

I'm about to put a review up, but I've had it for 3 weeks and it does get VERY hot. Much hotter than a 17" I had and hotter than a 15.4" I had. I mean like I didn't know it was safe for it to run this hot, and this is straight out of the box. However, I game for significant periods of time and I haven't had an overheat. Someone in newegg said this thing gets to 64 degrees C with a cooler, and that is accurate. If you buy this for gaming, I would reccomend a cooler (that shoots air to the front of the computer, since that's where the vents are) and u shud be fine. It comes with a free 2 yr accidental dmg warranty (if you register it w/ asus by mailing them a small slip that comes w/ the computer), so send it back if it does overheat.

From what I can tell, it comes with only one fan. I just finished a 2 hour gaming session at max settings (fan overdrive off) and its only a little warm under the left side. I can assume that if I had the overdrive off, it may not be warm at all. I have had this laptop for about a month now and having nothing but good things to say....besides windows 8 of course.

This computer has not heated up, as long as I've been using it. It seems to stay cool to me.

It depends I suppose. Like I stated in my comment, my laptop primarily overheats when gaming. Overheats so bad that it actually turns off my laptop, haha.. This cooling pad has definitely ceased that, and it doesn't get as hot as it used to. It still gets warm-hot at certain times though, but I think that's normal for laptops. Other than gaming, it keeps my laptop cool-warm when I browse the internet, or do what I have to do on the computer. So does it effectively cool it? I would say yeah and no, since it depends on what you're doing.

It has a fan that you can speed up. The laptop gets pretty hot when gamming, but it never crashed because of that.

No, it does not get hot. I have never had it overheat or even get warm to the touch.

Not sure if it only has one fan. It has a button I push when I want the fan to blow faster when gaming. The air coming out is pretty warm when gaming but I don't know the exact temp. To me it doesn't matter. I really like this laptop and it performs awesome.

Very much so! I tested it by turning the fan off and my laptop was getting hotter.

It does get hot, I would suggest a small fan and vent like on a computer tower

I can't speak specifically from experience with your computer, but mine was shutting down from overheating, and burned to the touch, and now runs cool.

If it does heat up it's something that i don't notice. The desk itself doesn't ever feel hot while it's on my lap, the only heat that i feel is the hot air that comes out of the side of the laptop. I specifically purchased a lapdesk to keep my computer from heating up to the point that it turns itself off and i must say that i have not experienced this problem since purchasing this lapdesk.
