i have bad news friends. that $1,000 off that i got on my $3,800 Acer Predator Triton 17 X Gaming Laptop may have been a self own as i will be trying to return it on Monday ...
i have previously had one multimedia laptop, one business class laptop, one macbook pro and two mobile workstations but i never had a gaming laptop before and that's why i bought the wrong one - i had no idea what i was doing ...
i had no idea how hot those things get - i don't mean the CPU / GPU thermals - i mean how hot the keyboard gets
i have completely overlooked keyboard temperature when shopping - i just saw $1,000 off for laptop with RTX4090 and Mini-LED screen and i jumped on that deal ...
but after about an hour of gaming the keyboard gets too hot ... the 6.8 pound CNC milled aluminum chassis just slowly heats up to the point where you can't rest your hand on it ... it's fine for like the first 10 minutes of play but then it starts to get worse and worse ...
now the challenge is to find a replacement that will somehow cheat the laws of physics and not heat up LOL ... but spoiler alert i was looking whole week and the guys who make these laptops aren't bright enough to solve this issue ...
Razer Blade comes the closest to solving the problem but holy **** it's almost $2,000 more than what i paid for the Predator that has the same specs !
