So I have been using my new laptop, the MSI Dragoneyes GE402OC
http://www.msi.com/product/nb/GE40-2OC-Dragon-Eyes.html#overview
and it has been fantastic, besides the keyboard not back lit, it has been pretty well perfect. Everyone on here when I purchased it suggested I purchase a cooler if I wanted to play a couple of games here and there. I decided to get one so I got one of these:

which seems to sort of work..
HOWEVER, I installed Grid 2 last night, runs absolutely perfectly, BUT my core temp hit 65 degrees while playing even with the cooler! it got so hot I could hardly even sit it on my lap anymore. Also the graphics card sits under your left wrist which gets extremely hot as well!! I know it is a powerful game so I expect the laptop to work but why make a laptop that can run a game like that but cant keep itself cool enough to sit on the owners lap?
Any advice as to what I should do?
Thanks guys =)
