Some laptops are designed to be open when running, like the asus rog zephyrus.
- irscott 6y agoMy ROG runs HOT as hell.
- all2 6y agoYou may need to redo the thermal paste on the CPU and the graphics card. My g73jh needed a re-paste about every 3 months. The frame of the laptop wasn't strong enough to prevent the paste from de-laminating when I moved the laptop around.
- etimberg 6y agoSo that's what the problem was! I had a g73 10 years ago and it burned through a graphics card and then ram while on warranty. It did get a bit better once I flashed a modded low power vbios i found on some sketchy online site. Eventually it just stopped booting and I switched to a MBP.
- varjag 6y agoUnless there is some implement preventing you running it closed, I would disagree about "designed" part.
- speedgoose 6y agoSome cooling openings are open only when the laptop is open. So the laptop is very thin for transport and well cooled when open. You can run it closed but it's not cooled very well.
