What do you think about Aorus X5-CF1 G-Sync

What do you think about this laptop as a desktop replacement? Does it worth it even though it suffers from heating? Or shall I stick with a bulky noiseless and less heating laptop like ASUS ROG Series?

The Asus ROG one is much better because it has a 980M, the Broadwell CPU in the Aorus one isn't really that big jump from the 4720HQ

I would get something that doesn't heat up badly, like the ROG G751JY or the Clevo P650SG.

I think it's pretty cool - I really like the sleek design and the SLI configuration. Seems like a solid build, but I've heard a lot of stuff about the fan noise and temperatures. If you're looking at getting one, you could always order one, try it out, and see if you like it!
