There's this salesman trying to tell about the Anti-Dust Cooling on the ASUS FX504, saying that it helps cool the laptop better. I didn't really quite understand what the guy was saying but what does it really mean? Is it just a cooler with dust filtering system? And on that note, is there a different way to keeping the laptop clean?

Sure, I could ask the salesman but I can't trust him enough to give me proper details instead of just trying to make a sale, laugh.gif

how bad are we talking about here? is it overly hot / throttles in games or does it get really hot in doing regular stuff like office work even? If it's the latter, then that I can understand how bad the situation is laugh.gif

i am currently using fx504 for work and gaming, before the new update there is throttling especially when i am playing pubg but after the new firmware update it seems solve the problem, didnt face any throttling when playing pubg anymore

cooling wise ok ok for me, not that really bad butt but not much to expect
