Predator Triton 500 rubber feet

marcushdjdjs

hey guys! I want ask a question regarding my laptop and I don’t know whether it is normal or not below is the image of my laptop rubber feet, 1 is left and 1 is right as u can see the rubber feet part in the yellow circle is not touching the table. For the left side of the rubber feet, it touches the surface more that the right side. May I know is this normal and will it becomes unstable after long use of my laptop? At the moment the laptop stays still and doesn’t wobble around and it won’t move and also it perfectly sits on the table. Just want to know whether is it normal and I did not drop this laptop. Thanks

marcushdjdjs also bare in mind its advisable have the laptop elevated for better airflow circulation just by normally put it on a table its not enough it will not have enough space for the fresh air to flow under it i suggest you to elevate it somehow 2/3 inches i for ex i use 2 X 2.5 hdd enclosure card boxes one on each side to keep it elevated while im not using it but probably while using it one at the middle only its more than enough (this is the cheaper way to do it and i only use this when im not using it myself because when i use it/game on it i always use it in bed on my lap on one knee only apart from that its always on 24/7 but not using it i only access it remotely whenever i need to) you can also buy a cooling pad to get it elevated (probably the best option but not cheaper)

Thanks for your suggestion but do you think my rubber feet is normal as one of the rubber feet doesn't fully touches the surface of the flat table as other does? but it doesnt wobble  or shake and it sit still when i am typing overall.

Well in my view the chassis from all laptops are all mass manufactured and some might be slightly twisted not seen to the naked eye (shouldnt happen but might happen) i never noticed that on mine mainly because i never had it on top of a table to check but even if i had that issue i wouldnt worry too much about it as no one would notice it anyway but again its just me you are in your own right to not like it and want it fixed but i would worry more about other serious issues hardware/software etc you could try to get another rubber feet but if the issue its with the chassis itself the result would be exactly the same
