I wanted to buy the razer blade 15.6 (1080 144 1070 500gb) but, I was told it gets to hot on the bottom. I want a laptop I could use on my lap and not burn me, I was thinking on getting a laptop cooler that would allow me to use it on the bed and lap. Does anyone have a idea of a good laptop cooler i could use on a razer blade 15.6 or a better thin and light that i can use on my lap.
I was thinking that maybe my friend was being dramatic and that could only happen on extreme situations, which would mean i can play games that dont demand much, like terraria or fortnite.
Thank you.

he is right, the razer has quite some bad design when it comes to thermals. Better go for Aero 15x or GS 65.

I would say get one of these but they seem to have gone belly up, sucks I would have bought a spare one had i know that would happen: https://www.amazon.com/Lap-King-Des...0031047H8/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
that thing is so comfy and has a nice notched surface to help airflow. I'm sure you can find something similar...Vasudev and Joel Jiron like this. -
I have the older Razer blade 14 with the 1060 gpu. And I've used that device alot on the go or in many locations that don't have a desk. Even for gaming. Now hfm is a bit harsh with the pretty much no gaming laptop can be used on your lap while gaming. I have done it a few times and placed it directly on my BARE CHEST when playing with a controller and I have no burn marks. It does get warm. But, not enough it will burn you.
When I was at home sitting on my couch I just used a piece of wood that was long enough to fit the laptop and a mouse with a laptop stand. So long as you elevate the laptop so the fans on the bottom of the machine can breath you will get much better cooling than having it sit flat. HTWingNut swears buy using just bottle caps at the two top corners of his laptops and honestly I've adopted his mentality as elevation is more than you'll ever need unless you live somewhere it's really hot.

While laptop coolers do help, it seems very minimal in the laptops I've used. Plus most are bulky and cumbersome.
You also can make laptop table that would be great for use on the couch and bed use with some pvc pipe and a wooden board. So long as you aren't afraid of power tools.

I tested Asus Zephyrus GM501 and I think it's the solution... Backplane is cold compare to another laptops...

- block the intakes from properly pulling air in due to your clothing/skin
- sweat...
- #2 at best... start to getting close to burning your skin after a short period of time

Now the 8750H in this sucker gets what I would consider hot. It was hovering around 90 F. And I got a bit sweaty from having a half hour gaming session.
I honestly must have thick skin, because even that wasn’t terrible to me. Pushing it for sure. But, not hot enough to burn me. -
