The high temperature emission is one of the largest weaknesses of the all-round notebook. With an average temperature of 30 °C (86 °F), the case already reaches a relatively high level during idle operation. After one hour of stress test, the base unit reached over 40 °C (104 °F). During spot testing, our measurements showed even 49 °C (120.2 °F top side) to and 60 °C (140 °F bottom). Playing a PC game on your lap would not be very wise. Some users will feel that the surfaces become unpleasant during long gaming sessions.
The components are not faring any better. Although the Core i7-3632QM operates at the basic clock rate under full load, the CPU reaches 90 °C (194 °F) according to the tool Hardware Monitor. A GPU temperature of 87 °C (188.6 °F) maximum is also relatively high. Under normal conditions (incl. games), the components do not become that warm. A combination of FurMark and Prime is considered an extreme and unrealistic scenario.
