Finally a new laptop!
sdedalus83:
The memory score is higher because of the AMD's on die controller. It's pretty much meaningless for your purposes.
Get the AMD. The bigger screen and hdd are a lot more important for a DTR than the 10 - 15% bump in cpu performance.
If you're looking for portability, they're both poor choices, so I'm assuming you want a laptop for convenience rather than the ability to carry it with you.

Well, I'd rather have some power than portability. However, I'm big enough to carry it around when I need to, I'm not weakling. Though I'm not in the best shape of my life at the moment, I was way more fit when I attended my Sports College.

Look at the bottom of your computer youll be able to see where your fan to cool off your CPU is the point of a nice laptop cooler with adjustable fans is you can position them exactly where you want them to be most affective.
Assuming because it costs 60$ that its good = bad idea

Please re-work the first paragraph, I really can't tell what you're trying to say. I'm not trying to offend you though. I do have a fan at the bottom of my laptop, though it's in the laptop so..? How effective will it be? It's not like I can mount a moveable fan at the bottom of the laptop.
Well, it can be plugged to the computer through an USB cable so it's definitely easy to use. Although the wind wasn't very strong. I don't know how much is necessary to cool off a CPU. And while $60 seemed expensive, I doubted its value. I mean, this much for that thing?
I'll be using my laptop for encoding for some time so a fan should probably be a good idea. To decrease my laptop's lights, I usually place some clothes on it. Probably not a great idea, but the clothes are nicely warm when I take them on again. :D I've been doing that a lot since I mostly get stuff at night since people tend to use their computers mostly in the day.
fohfoh:
He means to check underneath to see where there's a vent thing that air can get in. Find a fan that locates close to that area. (blowing on an area with no access to the inside is pointless)
