actually it does

on my gateway p-173XL

the top-left holes are for the GPU right ? it goes very hot when playing games , and when i open the bottom vents , it goes back to normal

sometimes it overheats and the game freezes if blocked

my 7811FX still runs cool for me when gaming (CoD4, Brothers in Arms) at full blast. I only keep my comps elevated, no cooler since they are a bit noisy for my taste.

As y0us let me now the seller counts on a good application of a good thermal compound. So I say worth a shot. I mean the price is great. Just wish he put a T9900 in lower TDP. Seller does sell lots of different high end notebooks.

So go for it. But maybe ask if any other CPU models? If not go for it.

Take a look here for additional tooling that can help cooling the comp whilst gaming:
