does this laptop have any overheating issues that any of you have noticed?

No, but don't buy it. Computer is really buggy with Windows 8. I haven't even had it for a year and I'm looking into a replacement.

Yes! And it locks up often and it's incredibly slow almost all the time. I have very few apps and keep all my data offline so it has to be the computer. Wish it had Windows 7, or better yet: XP.

I haven't tried pushing the computer to it's absolute max. Under medium load the fan starts to spin but it's pretty quite and the temperatures are still within a normal range (~50C)

No overheating issues that I have noticed. The fan is super quiet as well, hardly can tell it's running.

I run CS 4 on it without a problem. When I try running programs that are more graphically intensive, it gets hot and the battery life is greatly reduced. It's not a high powered GPU. All that said, it's been a solid laptop. I've been pleased.

I have had no problems with overheating even when leaving the computer on and plugged in to maintain charge for many hours.

I have not had any issues, in fact it is holding better than the dell one that came with the laptop.

No, but don't let that stop you from buying it. It is a fabulous laptop. No problems whatsoever.

I have not had that issue. Make sure you're current with updates from Lenovo.

Flawlessly, I consider myself a pretty hardcore gamer with multiple 3+ hour gaming sessions and I haven't found that the computer ever gets too hot to continue playing. The Max temp I have seen both CPU and GPU was probably around 75c. Even when it gets to that point just turn on the Turbo settings for the fan and it drops the temp to high 50s mid 60s. This laptop is a big girl so it's heat displacement is really amazing.

It does not overclock automatically that I know of. It does get pretty warm when I'm running games, but I would not say that it gets hot necessarily. It definitely stays cooler than my last laptop did while running games.

Yes this is a BEAST never have overheating issues handles graphic intensive games with no issues. The on,y downfall is it is a larger laptop, heavy, and bulky

yes it gets hot at times but not too much compared to other laptops, I would say medium.... but there are other more serious problems for example the keyboard is awful !!!

I had a constant problem with this computer overheating, even tried a HUGE cooler on the cpu, didn't help much. I have this cooler on two of my computers and I've had no problem with overheating whatsoever. I play all my games, FPS, Racers, etc., at highest settings and no problems. Wouldn't build a new computer without one.

I have also had this laptop a little over a year and haven't had an issue with my power cord. So far I haven't had any issues at all with it. It is good to know though if it is an issue that I can watch out for it now.

No. I have not had any issue with the device overheating and I run with it in 100+ degree temps.

I did not notice this issue with mine. I have using this laptop for about 6 weeks, so far I did nit see that issue. But I am not using it everyday.

Hi, I bought this for a custom laptop we built for a customer. I haven't heard of any problems or complaints at this time. He seemed very pleased with the machine. I'm not using it of course, but he is a younger "gamer" type user, and I'm sure if there was an issue with it he would have brought it up. Hope this helps,Martin

I have had no problem HOWEVER, it depends on the specific laptop also. I have had no problems at all up to 1-2 hours of use with my dell. My daughter, however, has an HP which it seems has a overheating problem anyway and she needed a base with a USB supported dual fan system.
