Re: [Notebooks] Best Notebook Cooler Pads

I have an old chillpad for my old notebook but it is to small to handle the 17" HP I ordered. It is also made very cheaply which is why I asked for the best (Quality & Quiet). Money is not an issue for a cooling pad.

I will keep that one you mentioned in mind as well as this one I looked into.

The other model I looked at is the Zalman ZM-NC2000.

Thanks

Zalman tends to make well-built products, so I would assume this is as well, but at $65 that seems a bit steep for the purpose. If the price does not phase you though, it probably will do the job, and have a good life-span.

1 edit		 The reason I say price is not an issue is because less then $100 to protect a new notebook worth more then a grand it is a cheap investment.

Now that I have some ideas from you and dadkins it puts me into the ballpark of what type of cooling pad I am looking for.

Thanks again.

I have that same model on my Vostro 1710, which is being used as a second desktop.

Newegg has it for slightly less than Amazon: »www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···34998686

I'm running it off a USB power adapter instead of one of the laptop's USB ports.
