GT60 or Sager NP-9130?

[xMAR99]

That's what I've heard from reviews, so I'm really torn between the GT60 and the P150EM. I like the GT60, but I want a 680m.

Wait for a week, I think MSI has a surprise for us

The GT60 comes with 1x cooling fan that cools both the CPU and the GPU. CPU and GPU have separate heatsinks, but the fan cools both. Air is drawn in from the top around the keyboard as well as from slots on the bottom, but the bottom slots are not close to the fan. Air is exhausted out back and the side, so some hot air can blow on the left hand if you have your mouse on that side

Thank you for the expert input.

A question, if you will: I'm getting a laptop that has a similar barebones as the GT60 and I was wondering whether this type of cooling scheme would benefit from a cooling pad such as the Coolermaster SF-19 since it's blowing air towards the bottom of the laptop?

Actually, what would be the best type of cooling pad for a GT60?

Thanks again!

If MSI released a GT60 with a 680, I would buy it immediately.

My source also says that a 16-inch with a 680m is coming soon. I don't have an ETA though.

Who knew laptop buying was filled with such mystery?
