    Any suggestions ?
    I use AVG, but I've heard a lot of people prefer microsoft security essentials.

    What do you think about these ? Will it affect the laptop as the heat cant escape so easily ?

    Is that real carbon fibre or just a decal kit?

    Why would it stop heat escaping though?

    Im sure the skin will be fine. I doubt its real carbon fiber unless your paying 75+, and if it is, I'd be wary, I havent seen any good REAL carbon fiber skins. The fake ones are bad too though. Let carbon fiber be exclusively for cars. Try invisibledefenders.com, I have heard good things, and they just came out with compatability for the m14x.

    Got mine on Thursday, it was a replacement for my high end desktop, I dont really play that many games anymore other than the odd MMO that i get hooked on so i was happy to see that it ran WOW brilliantly.

    Sound is great on it, i got the 256gb SSD, been pleasantly surprised with the quality of the build.
