LOL, it's a very small price to pay for the phenomenal performance it delivers. It's still very portable and I love how massive it is. It's really not all that heavy and I would be disappointed if it was any smaller. It has about 100k air miles on it and it's not difficult to travel with. The bulk is necessary to have 3 large fans, heat sinks and radiators that are large enough to keep things cool, and it does a fantastic job of cooling even with the overclocks I am pushing. The 330W AC adapter is a limitation. If it had a 450W or larger PSU it could be pushed even harder... runs out of power with a massive CPU and GPU overclock, so those have to be scaled back so it doesn't draw more power than the PSU can provide.
They make dual-power supply adapters. Although I'd think you would hit the power limit on the motherboard before you run out of juice at that point.
