- I've always stored this in a dustproof bag when not in use. There's not much dust or any other ageing related stuff on this laptop anywhere. It looks almost new. There is no dust on the inside of the laptop as well. Vents and fans are all clear and clean.
- I've installed a trackpad protector from day one. And I clean my hands before and after using this laptop's keyboard. So, there are no oil stains or wear and tear on those as well.
- I had disabled Turbo Boost, under volted and limited processor performance to ensure good thermals and long life for this laptop (hasn't had a noticeable impact on performance at all). The laptop cools down very quickly after a gaming session. I always turn off the laptop after cooling down and making sure that the temperature is below 40 degrees and after the fans cut off. I also use this with a laptop cooling stand and in a well ventilated area without blocking the fans.
I can sell this laptop in the following price brackets:
- Without SSD, HDD, RAM and OS: Rs. 30,000
