What's the name of that laptop with the disc drive you can swap out for an extra fan?

I am pretty sure it is the Lenovo Y500 but i am not sure  if it is the one Linus reviewed.

Thanks, but I found it. It's the Acer Predator 15.

 Bingo! Was going to suggest that. An interesting little laptop that. One of about 3 15" units on the market to come with a 980M (Gigabyte P35X & a Clevo unit which i cant remember the name of also do).

Sorry shouldve wrote *a couple of Clevo units. Other than those and the ones I mentioned their really aren't much else. Plus that Lenovo one is pretty interesting, genuinely never heard of it before :D Trying to get a gaming laptop with a lot of horsepower that will fit in a "normal" sized laptop sleeve in a backpack is a pain. Gigabyte P35X does just barely I might have a biased opinion since I own one. The Clevo and Acer unit probably run cooler or quieter but look too fat to fit into a standard 15" sleeve.

 

I really dont know what 15" laptops companies like North Face use to size their nowadays sleeves. I can imagine its something like a Dell XPS 15 or the likes with next too no bezzel and a tiny frame.
