If not, use a can of compressed air and blast it from different angles to see if you can blow anything stuck out.

In all seriousness, if you ever had a touchscreen, it is pretty revolutionary. Hitting that button with a finger instead of scrolling all the way there with a touchpad/stick/mouse/trackball is worth it alone, but even web navigation is better than touchpad scrolling.
Remember, Apple will introduce a MacBook Pro with a touchscreen soon and it will be the first laptop ever to combine the ease of use of a tablet and the functionality of a laptop and revolutionize how you compute and then you will never go without one.

The afterburners turned to full speed on start up and then randomly with certain apps. Way too noisy for me. I did buy open-box excellent, so possibly something with my unit, however, when I had the Legion right next to me for noise comparsion, there was no way I could ignore the sound this thing generates. Other than the fan noise, it was nice laptop. Glad I returned it though, as I paid $655 for it just last month.
Seriously, I've just written off any Intel-powered laptops. Ryzen consistently offers same or better performance (esp. in multicore and - on the newest Ryzen 7s, much higher iGPU performance), with much less heat and fan noise.
Pros: It runs great. The performance/price is absolutely solid. I use my as my daily driver now -- doing all the tasks I want and when it comes time to chill, I'll hop on a game. You might not be running @max but low to mid range settings feels spiffy. I also plug this into my monitors and TV, again with no issues or hick ups to the performance. The track pad feels good, I mean really good. It's larger than some of the other brands which I appreciate and it's responsive. The screen is ok. The sounds is adequate and the keyboar gives off that hybrid feel; it suffices. There are two levels of backlighting and both are very nice. Thermals @ start up and during multi tasking are also adequate -- fan speeds outa box seem to work very well. I have had no issues with mine. Upgrading is EASYYY -- installing RAM and/or adding storage can be done with little headache.
Cons: The shell is all plastic and def feels a bit flimsy. It has a bit of weight to it but not as much as like the Legion or an XPS -- this translates to the keyboard, the trackpad, even the screen. It just doesn't feel solid. It shows your prints or any oils you might have on your hands (easy to clean tho). The track pad is shifted to the left and might take some getting use to. For instance, I'm use to it being right in the middle so when I would go to click I found my self right clicking A LOT. The keyboard feels mushy. Fans do ramp up when you're gaming and they are quite loud. Also, it gets toasty.

Not directly related, but If you have a toddler who has exposure to any touch tech, esp tablets, a touch enabled laptop will be your nightmare. They'll totally mess with your icons and tasks, and probably move your screen to an uncomfortable angle when you're not looking.
But more importantly, it stymies their ability to learn how to be productive on a computer. The keyboard becomes this optional, crumb-catching, noise making tray-thing.
