xxblazerxx1 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I'm currently looking at the Sager NP7338 (Clevo W230SS) with i7-4810MQ and GTX 860M (2.0GB). My question is whether or not this would play at a cooler temp than a y510p with 755m SLI for games like Assassin's Creed 4 or Tera Online. Thanks in advance!

DiveDr Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 xxblazerxx1,These laptops have only one integrated cooler for the CPU and GPU. It has been my extensive experience in the past whenever the CPU cooler and GPU cooler are the same and both the CPU and GPU are called upon to throttle heat becomes an issue. Heat over prolonged periods of time causes component failure. If you are really looking for something that is going to provide a high level of performance in a laptop there should be a dedicated and separate heat sink and fan for the GPU and CPU. Although significantly more money the Clevo P150SM-A will probably serve your purpose better. We will run cooler for extended periods of time which has been added benefit of in general less component failure or at least less premature component failure. Remember in general the light that burns twice as bright lasts half as long.Hope that helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
