    Two quick questions, which software that comes on the GT60 is bloatware, in other words which software should I remove? Also, when I press the buttons that are next to the power button, like the turbo fan button, there isn't notification on screen about whether or not it worked.

    Many customers consider the Norton internet security a bloatware, if you don't like it you can remove it. Turbo Fan doesn't have on-screen display, it just increase the fan speed to keep the laptop cool while gaming or overclocking.

    Remember that whatever you remove that was installed from factory can be recovered anyway, either via a factory recovery or by means of simply downloading and installing the utility again.
