I currently dont have one and my laptop runs pretty warm. I typically offset this by playing in batches and lettting it cool down over a period of time and its sorta annoying. Right now this is the cooler that I think ill get. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834998051 It looks pretty good and itll fit my 14.5 Laptop pretty well. Biggest thing is that the cooling vents are at the bottem of the laptop and my laptop gets hottest at the back near the fan (funny how that works isnt it ) My vents are at the bottem center and back left and right sides and underneath the back center Fans themselves. Im just looking for some input on this before I drop any money on a product. So if you know of better ones or think this looks good then let me know. Thanks!

If looking at usb ports i would get the zalman you seen at newegg, but if looking for a quick cheap way without paying shipping and having same effects get the bestbuy one i sent you.

It never goes anywhere with me unless im travling. When I game it sits on a cooling station that I have now but its just something that lifts the laptop off of the table to help cool it down and has no fans with it. The bestbuy one looks good because of the open vents all the way through. Do you know where the fans are on the cooling station though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
