I wouldn't say Clevo cooling is inherently good out of the box.  They use beefy fans and heatsinks to compensate for other design flaws.  Lots of units ship with warped heat sinks that need to be lapped and on many models, the bottom case vents are extremely restrictive.  Cutting mine out literally reduced temps by 10C across the board.

 

If you fix these issues, then the cooling systems in Clevos are beastly.  Can't comment on newer alienwares, but older ones had fantastic cooling systems too.  

 

Definitely stay far away from Razer. . . .

Apparently the MSI GT72 machines are the new things to own. I've got a few people who use those almost exclusively and they're almost complete copies of the older M17x R3 and R4 layouts internally. I.E. amazing cooling and upgradability. There are a few people on OCN who have 4GHz running with temps never breaking 70*C. Had to do a fully live recording over skype to convince me it wasn't a prank or fake.
