@m my laptop is nearby the AC and has a dehumidifier, and a laptop cooler, and extra fans to blow on the keyboard.
it never gets hot and the fans only kick in every once in a while. the dehumidifier is the loudest part of it, but it's essential. someday i might open it up and replace the fan with a noctua or cooler master if possible.

@m i have a 2019 ryzen laptop that has a single heat pipe that barely does anything. the AC vent does so much to keep it cool.
my laptop will overclock until it reaches 75 degrees up to 3.7GHz
that's at least in high power mode, in power saver it stays luke warm at most.
the base clock is 2.10 but it scares me that it regularly reaches 3.7GHz when it's on the AC vent

@m my laptop was really cheap when I got it. it's also really crap, but I can work around it's shortcomings
the bluetooth is finicky, the wifi card causes bug checks sometimes (fixed by replacing the card) it sometimes just locks up for no reason (mostly in battery mode)
I still think it's a fairly powerful laptop for what it is and for $400 I shouldn't be complaining since a laptop with these specs would normally be $700-800 at the time

@m oh yeah, and the keyboard can wake up the computer when sitting in a bag because the keys go above the deck and are a milimeter away from the screen
