Yeah right - on what basis are you saying that? Because a couple of guys posted in the lenovo forum? And how on earth did you infer that it heats up more than Samsung laptops? I see what temps many in Samsung thread are getting - I mean they even reached 100 frequently for many users in the thread FFS. I use the laptop now extensively under A/C and hot conditions - and my experience has been the same as anupam's. The ones in the thread mostly had SLIs (which obviously would heat up more) or didn't have the fan in the place of ultrabay.
And we're talking about an FHD laptops cooling vs 720p, to put things in perspective.
100? Where? Except for Pratyush, the max achieved by Sammy so far is 94-96, on all models. If you're going to believe a few whose sammies reached 100C, then we can surely believe those Lenovo forum guys too. You might want to recheck the thread, not all of them had two GPUs on SLI and temps for them are reaching at 100C, even that in NY.
However I'm amazed to read that, as Y500 being bulky and thicker it should actually have better heat management capabilities compared to the slim Series 5 practically.
