  1. Thanks for replys, In fact I am using cooler, forget to mention, but its really cheap version I found once in "poundland" it has 3 little fans but from what I see it does no difference (Shop where you can buy everything for a 1£ :D)  Anyway, the one JaharakaL mentioned looks much more professional, I will try to find it on ebay and buy it.

     

    About where do I keep my laptop, tried various "surfaces" but always the same.

  2. Hello, like 5 months ago, I have bought new laptop,

     

    Samsung NP550P7C 17.3" Series 5 Notebook, with following hardware:

     

    Processor: Intel® Core™ i7 Processor 3610QM (2.30GHz, 6MB L3 Cache)

    Graphic: NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 650M Graphics, Optimus™ technology 2GB DDR3

    Storage: 1TB S-ATA II Hard Drive (5400RPM), BluRay Drive

    Memory: 6GB DDR3 System Memory at 1600MHz (4GB x 1 + 2GB x 1)

    System: Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium (64-bit)

     

    HD Audio

    SoundAlive™

    JBL 3 Speakers (With sub-Woofer)

    1.3 megapixel HD Webcam

    17.3" HD+ LED Display (1600 x 900), Anti-Reflective

     

    Price when purchased: 900£ (~1350 USD, ~1050 euro)

     


     

    I bought it mainly for development purposes, but wanted to play some games occasional, since mentioned hardware is not bad, I can play latest games but the problem is that laptop is getting REALLY hot (on the left side of the laptop), and by saying really hot I mean it seriously, once when I touched accidentally HDMI port which is located on the left side, it was hot as hell. I do understand that in really performance expensive games (ex. GTA 4 its normal that laptop is getting really hot) but even while playing fun older games (ex. Battlefield Heroes) its getting so hot as well, that sometimes I am bit worried. Sometimes played for few hours, never had any crash or any warn about temperature, but still its but weird for me.

     

    I am not hardware specialist, so excuse me if I lack knowledge, any hints?

  3. Tryskell's project is a half private project which he gets a good deal of money from(i suppose), (...) You know we do this project for free we dont ask for money from it nor doing it for fame(i can safely say we have estabilish a reputation around here alredy), we do this because thats a passion to us and a great hobby. (...)

     

    Tryskell was saying something similar at beginning I believe, but ended up as a so called a half private project (commercial) - by the way, I do not blame such decision, just stating my opinion. Interlude Archid was also free at beginning, latter - after spotting large commercial opportunity, changed their mind as well.
