Review: Aorus X7 v2

Benchmarks: Temperature

We did notice a small amount of CPU throttling during some of the more-demanding benchmarks, but on the whole, Aorus' dual-fan cooling configuration manages to keep the laptop running cool enough. The chassis gets warm but not overly hot, and the under-load temperatures of the GeForce GTX 860M GPUs is particularly impressive. Though, reiterating an earlier point, the fans do get loud when gaming.
