    I just looked at my old GT70 and it appears to have one fan, that's without taking the panel off, the exhaust is in the back right side of the laptop.

    GPU and CPU max in the 80s, like most gaming laptops. I never had to worry about overheating with mine.

    Are you buying a used one or something?

    They are like Kevin said, I stopped looking at them after two years, I just cleaned out the vents periodically.

    Just one fan, both CPU & GPU shared the fan and heatsink assembly.
