AW17 R2 Touchscreen and Heat Questions

I found an excellent deal on an AW17 R2 with 16GB of RAM, the 980M, and touchscreen.

I'm planning to pull the trigger, and immediately request the 240w PSU.

I've been reading the forums diligently, but I haven't found any detailed commentary on the 1080p touchscreen. Can anyone share their experiences?

Also, it seems like a lot of folks are having heat issues (especially with the A04 BIOS), at least while running benchmarks. How is the heat on the laptop for typical gaming use?

Thanks!
