Keyboard and Touchpad
For the keyboard, this GT72 still using StellSeries to power the backlit. The keyboard is included with the StellSeries Engine software suite to allows user to create custom macros and making it 100 percent reprogrammable keyboard. This keyboard is physically satisfying, with a simple and an island style caps. The keyboard will create statistical report and highlight for the keys that are used most frequently during a timed play session, also you can change the backlight colors.
Speaking of the touchpad, there is nothing wrong with the touchpad, with it smooth surface, it reads finger movements accurately and translate them into the exact location on the screen that I want to execute. On the pad boundaries it's definded by a LED glow that matches the color from the keyboard backlight, looks really sweet isn't it ?.

Usually if you run games or anything that load a lot resource for your laptop it will become into a PC Gaming hotplates, but the GT72 actually stays fairly cool. By turning the machine "cooler boost" features it will kick the drive temperature down a bit further. So it never reached the point where the heat makes you uncomfortable.
