Would a Moblie gpu have almost the same heatsink design as the cpu with a duct fan setup?
Is there is anything on the memory for heat like heatsinks or are they bare?
Just Thinks that pop into my head.
Getting A Dell Insiprion 1520.
So if any have one and open it before plz respond.
Also this is direct towards motherboard do they have bare chipsets?
Does the hdd heat make alot difference or is that other devices make it hot?

no a mobile gpu is designed to be energy effeicient. so if you were to put a mobile heat sink on a desktop, expect fire. lol expect the gpu to fail

Commander Wolf can i haz broadwell?
If the mobile GPU requires its own cooling solution, it will usually be similar to a cooling solution found on a mobile CPU. There usually isn't a cooling solution for the GPU memory (if that's what you're referring to when you say memory).
As far as I know most modern laptops won't have bare chipsets. The chipset cooling solution will usually be integrated into the CPU cooling solution; in the case of my D830, the CPU, chipset, and GPU all share the same cooling solution.
Drive heat usually isn't significant compared to CPU or GPU heat, but you may be able to feel a temperature difference between a 4200RPM and 7200RPM drive. You will definitely feel a difference in battery life. -

Thanks Commander Wolf Answer that were clear and easy to understand.
