Best notebook Cooling Fan Pad? & Pad?

Hi all. Hope this is ok to post here...
I am looking at a Fan Pad with usb ports. The notebook is not all that hot so I am looking to add a pad that has some extra ports like this one at geeks.com : Notebook Cooler Pad w/3 x 60mm Fan & 4 USB Ports or this one: Vantec LapCool4 & Targus Chillhub Cooling Pads.
Lastly, any opinions on the ZeroShock 15" MacBook pro sleeve found here: http://shinza.com/productinfo.php?cPath=5&productsid=57

hey, I use the NOTEPAL by Cooler Master, its made of aluminium, works great, my model doesent have more than two USB ports, one to conect it to the PB and another. Works great, not noisy, looks very nice. I think there are some other models made by this brand with extra USB ports...
Give it a try in amazon.com

  • G56 Notebook cooling fan

    Hello,
    My daughter has a G56 - 106EA Notebook.
    The cpu cooling fan ran for some time very noisily and then stopped working.
    I bought and fitted a new fan and turned the laptop on and the fan starts and then falters to a stop.
    I have checked both fans and they do run when connected to a battery.
    SpeedFan software shows the fan has zero rpm.
    I re-installed BIOS F.18 as it was suggested this could solve the problem, but it didn't.
    Is this a motherboard problem?

    Hello again stylova,
    To find out how a cooling fan works, I recommend following this document on How Does a Laptop Cooling Fan Work? This should help illustrate it's function and basic maintenance. 
    Since the Battery Test produced a "not installed" result, I recommend contacting our technical support at 1-800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

  • Best notebook cooler?

    I was considering buying a notebook cooler for my white Macbook (non-pro). I've already looked at the iLap, and it's out of my price range, so I'd like suggestions other than the iLap.
    I was considering getting the Antec Notebook Cooler (Pearl). I have a few questions about it, so here goes:
    -Does anyone have any experience with this cooler? What are the pros/cons about it?
    -I read a review saying that it ***** air from the bottom of the notebook and transfers it out to the back and side of the cooler. Does this interfere with the Macbook's fan?
    -Where is the Macbook fan anyways, and how does it work? -Another question I had was whether or not the Antec Notebook Cooler scratches the Macbook (because of the holes on the top).
    If anyone could answer those questions (or offer a better notebook cooler), it would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    Try the SMC update: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macbooksmcfirmwareupdate.html
    I installed it on mine, it works great. Mine now runs at 45-55 degrees Celsius. At idle it runs at 35-45 degrees, depending on external conditions. And if it goes above 65 degrees the fans quickly cool the machine down.
    The SMC update causes the fans to fun more constantly at a very low speed. You can only hear the fans if you have you ear right up to the machine. It just like the SMC update for the Macbook Pro, that too did wonders for Macbook Pro Users. You will see greater results after leaving it off for a night (because the computer is hot from the old SMC). I was shocked this morning when it was reporting a temperature of 29 degrees.
    Yes you can run the machine on your lap, without burning yourself. I still won’t recommend it. When I bought my first notebook, HP and all my friends who were Computer Techs warned me not too put it on my lap. Because it cuts down on airflow and your computer will get hot again, but not the like it did before. More importantly when the machine is on your lap, it causes far too much movement, which is damaging to your Hard Drive; movement and heat are the death sentence of a Hard Drive.
    Another plus, it increases your maximum volume and gets rid of the “moo.”

  • What is the best laptop cooling fan for a macbook pro?

    I have my macbook on basically all day every day and I just want a nice cooling fan for underneath it so it doesn't overheat on me

    I've never had any overheating issues, even when it is hard at work with several VMWare Fusion instances running concurrently. Just placed it on top of a Roadtech Coolpad (a passive laptop stand) and it's kept its cool thus far.

  • Looking for a Fan Pad for MBP

    I've heard a rumour that the AppleStore sells a cooling fan pad for their new ovens...excuse me, laptops. Anyone know of this, or where else in Toronto I can get one?

  • Chill Pads, or Cooling Fan Questions

    I am looking for a chill pad, for those of you who know what that is...
    First off, is this useful to even buy... all that I really know is that my laptop gets SUPER hot around the battery, and I figure that can't be good. So....
    I am wondering is there are any chillpads, or cooling thingys specifically for my Macbook, and if so where can I find them? Should I just pick a generic one? I am lost on what I should be looking for, if I should get metal, or plastic...etc. There are so many options to choose, and I am clueless about this thing!
    If you could shoot back some general information it would be greatly appreciated!

    I tried a generic chillpad with cooling fans on my MacBook Pro, and I can say that, in my experience, it makes no difference between using that and placing it on a table top.
    I currently use iLap (http://www.raindesigninc.com/ilap.html) and I find it better (in terms of comfort on my lap and using on desktop) than a chillpad. It's made of aluminum and because it slightly lifts the notebook from the table/lap, you don't feel the heat, especially when you do something that's processor-intensive.

  • MSI GT683 Cooling - Thermal Pads and Mod

    Hi,
    I have a MSi GT683 notbook. Sometime ago i upgraded the GPU (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=168610) and because of that i started to have some problems that turned out to be caused by the power supply not being strong enough (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=172580).
    Now i bought a new power supply but i am afraid that it will get my temps too high, so i want to do a maintenance of the notebooks cooling (change thermal paste and thermal pads) and maybe mod it a little bit.
    But i have some doubts that i need some help with.
    First, what thermal pad thickness should i use on the GPU? I changed the GPU from a 560M to a 675M and bought the appropriate heat sink.
    Second, can i cut a hole in the underside of the notebook so that the cooling fan can get more air?
    This is where i am thinking of cutting the hole:
    It will be a small hole, that i will cover with a mesh to keep dust out, directly above the fan.
    And i am going to buy this notebook cooler (http://www.coolermaster.com/mobile/notepal-series/notepal-u-stand/) which i probably going to mod changing and adding more powerful and quieter fans.
    What do you guys think? 

    actually cutting a hole under there is useless w.o cooling pad but if you can build up or find a good cooling pad which directly push cool air thru that hole then it makes some changes.... i have went thru lots of forums, sites and any other informative places about  modding notebook cooler and found out that best cooling method is that little bit alluminum + cooling pad + remove the whole lower case will give you 50-60C when your on full load.... so i tested out whichever method i have read and heard... adding alluminum on the both thermal parts on gpu and cpu w.o removing lower case and putting cooling pad under it gave me higher temp than normal... so i remove the lower case and put it on cooling pad 10 - 15C decrease than normal but i dont use my nb as station so its not for me... then i removed alluminum blocks and put the lower case back and put on a cooling pad gave me 5-6C lower temp... then i drilled some holes where you are planning to cut holes with 0.3 and put it on cooling pad then i got 9-13C lower temp normal and i tested it w.o cooling pad then i got exactly same temp as before cutting hole on the lower case... so i think that cutting hole under fan makes less air circulate is bias understanding and for my case its proven for me... so i am advising you to cut a hole there but not a big one use 0.3 drill that will give you some manufacture like clean cuts...
    also refer to this fix http://forum.notebookreview.com/sager-clevo/674825-improving-p170em-7970m-gpu-cooling-performance-foiled.html
    i know msi fan is not loose as clevo but it helped me lower some 2 3C

  • HP Notebook 2000 cooling fan issue

    Hey, everyone. I've had my HP Notebook 2000 for a few years and I've discovered my first major issue just a few days ago when the cooling fan stopped working. I don't really mind it too much because I have a USB-powered cooling fan that my laptop rests on, and it does a pretty good job. My entire laptop remains at about the same average tempurature.
    The biggest issue I'm having is every few hours, the laptop will automatically shut off because of it.
    As well, when I boot it up (turn it on), it gives me a reminder that the cooling fan isn't working and I will have to press "enter" or the laptop shuts off in 15 seconds.
    How can I make it so the laptop ignores the broken cooling fan? I don't want to spend the money to repair it because I can rely on the USB-powered cooling device.
    Thank you!
    ~Mark
    This question was solved.

    No you can't. Reason it probably shuts down is because cpu temps peak over safety threshhold at times thus it shuts down to prevent damage.
    Cooling systems on hp's are not the best when working so thermal stress on cpu,gpu & mainboard will be bad & failure failure will occur quite quickly.
    Fan assembly is very cheap & can be done DIY if you have some skill in dismantling these sort of things & following hp service manual & other online guides.
    I expect a new fan & new thermal paste & shimming along with cleaning would do wonders for running temps & long term health of the notebook.

  • HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC faulty cooling fan needs replacement.

  • Hp pavillion g6-3325 us notebook pc/ cooling fan

    Since installing the new windows 8 I have been getting an error message that states the cooling fan is not operating.  I have replaced the cooling fan as of yesterday and now the same error still is being delayed.  After letting the laptop cool for over 12 hours it started up and took me to an option that stated windows 8 did not start properly.  I was on my way back to the technician who repaired the cooling fan and was not able to restart the laptop without loosing any data.  It needed to be plugged in.  Headed back home and restarted the laptop and it slowly began working.  I have a bowl of ice under the cooling fan compartment so I can be on the internet and trouble shoot this problem.

    I would recommend that you download and install the latest BIOS update for your computer.
