    Hey guys,
    I just ordered an e1705 from Dell and was hoping to get a laptop cooler for it. My previous experience has been awesome using a bytecc to cool my old alienware area 51m and I was thinking of picking up the same piece again (although in a bigger size) for the Dell. The bytecc worked so well because unlike other laptop coolers it blew air up into the intakes on the bottom of my area 51m. My question now is whether or not the Dell has its heat intakes on the bottom of the chasis. If so then I'm definitely ordering the bytecc. Can anyone confirm this?

    thanks

    Yeah it has bottom intakes, both the CPU and GPU fan draws air from the bottom as seen here and here.

    Thanks a lot. I guess I'll get the bytecc then. Can't wait for my dell to come!
