    Hi I'm using the model posted. When I play games that use the ATI graphic card my fan becomes alot louder. The sound is pretty loud but it doesn't sound like it's going to explode. Also the area right under the monitor gets pretty hot. Is this normal? If not what can i do?

    It is normal because the fans and vents are located under the hinge area, so heat gets dumped to the LCD.
