Hey guys, i have been a silent spectator on this forum till now.

I have read some posts wher people post AMD has an heating issue. Now also i have some people bullsh*ting this claim while people supporting it. CAn i get any AMD users confirming the problem. I know gaming with high setting WILL heat ur lappy for sure, but is it so excessive that it will affet ur laptop life.
I am planning to buy a decent gaming lappy in an around jan. want to make an informed decision.

I request only those user who have an AMD processor & experienced the problem. People who have just "heard" about AMD heating issue please excuse. (sorry for being harsh but the ambiguity of this issue is affecting me and a lot of buyer to go for AMD)

Thanks & sorry if i offended anyone!

All those claiming AMD has heating issues are clearly misinformed or atleast living in past.
I am a recent AMD owner. While its true I am using E350 APU which is "supposed" to be low powered, I am planning to go for A10-5800K in about a week.

Search before creating such threads.

Closing.

Historically, Intel had the most overheating processor with Pentium 4.
