I don't whether anyone acknowledged that, but if you take out the battery and flip it around (like in the picture) you can lift your notebook higher and thus decrease its distance from the table you are playing at probably lowering the temperature. What is cool about it, is the fact that you will hear a 'click' just like you would place it in the normal way and it makes the laptop totally stable. Check it out and let me know if you like it and most importantly does it make any difference. (please don't tell you knew about)

i don't think this is a good idea ..
you can broke the mechanism -
Wait, your not using it like that to also power the laptop right? (Idk how you could) But just as a sort of "stand" to raise it up?
-
Well I haven't thought of that - anyway I have small separate keyboard for playing, so should though avoid pushing or pulling to have it broken. I will test that, hopufully not broke it.

The case is not the problem @ the G73 series!
-
well I thought about it the way in which the fans inside can suck the air easier
-
I use a rare item called a DVD case. It works, no kidding.

what about when having the laptop in your lap...
i have it like that all the time and i can feel it warm bellow
any suggestions for this -
-
mine is really hot too, it puts out hot air like crazy. Maxes out at 95 or so in furmark.... which is pretty standard.

You're funny.
Sooner or later, The plastic lining to guide your battery when you put it in will giveup because of the weight of the laptop. It's not meant for that use. And theres a lot of ways raising the end of the laptop without taking off the battery like you did.

Just put other object under it.

You know, at your local corporately owned hardware store they sell packs of appliance "feet" Sticky on one side, rubbery on the other, in varying sizes. A few bucks for an 8 pack and you can get a 2" lift to the back side of the machine without any potentially negative side effects.
-
Or even better, get those laptop "stands", they're adjustable for any size laptops and give you a nice lift from the desk.

I came up with this due to the fact I do a lot lan parties - this is the reason I invested in laptop instead of regular PC. I like when I can pack all the stuff in one practical bag and move around without bigger effort. Previously I had a HP dv-5 laptop which heated so badly - I made my own cooling pad (I'll post the photo later) and I couldn't pack it and carry in my hands. Anyway my g73 doesn't get overheated noticably. I also have the gaming gear, so once raised nothing should happen.

i just stack up some legos and put them below my laptop works awesome =)
Cool way to decrease temperature [G73]
