	With this Panasonic running so damn hot I'm willing to give anything a try. Currently thinking about making a custom copper heatsink. This is the stock type and that silver "metal" is real garbage, very brittle (as in I broke one accidently) The entire laptop is sealed, take it in the shower with you if you want....but it makes for very bad thermals. Edit: After digging I found out the metal is zinc. Not much flexibility

	Where did it say 4090? I got message that topend it would only go to a 4060, hence a "budget" gaming laptop. While still faster than my Legion Y740 it cant compete with a desktop for price Vs performance.

	For the price I might still buy one just to have an 'on the go' semi capable laptop (after tweaking the hell out of it). But for playing games I would build a desktop with much better specs for same ca$h

	K5-Pro thermal goop (Thermal pad alternative) Tested on Panasonic CF-31 (mk2) Intel Core i5-2520M @ 2.50GHz Running Window 8.1 I've had this laptop maybe 6 months and It has always been hot. Like 50C on idle and pegging 98C just by thinking about opening a youtube video. From what I have been able to learn this is not that uncommon.

	Missing an I in that name. Lo IQ Nar ... for the price it's good for kids or a really tight budget. Just the specs on newer systems make me shake my head at the crap big companies are rolling out the door. 16"? 4060? BGA? I hate to say it but my next PC will be desktop

	Just watched Alone in the wilderness Story about Dick Proenneke who spent 30 years alone living in an Alaskan off grid cabin he built. Very appealing. I was always attracted to this stuff. As a kid my favourite books were like Robinson Cursoe and Smith Family Robinson
