| reply to punker said by punker :i would not get any HP after about an year most motherborads will Crack and no longer work right you buy HP at your own risk No offense punker, but that was not the OP's question at all, not to mention not being an accurate statement. Also, Stiofan is quite aware that Compaq is now a brand name under HP.
You said: "there coolers are about the size of an motherborad chipset cooler"...er no, that was not what the OP was asking about either.
Liquid_Man already owns a HP, for better or worse, the question was about laptop "coolers" that one puts under a laptop to draw excess heat away, and whether they were effective, or a waste of money.
BTW Liquid_Man, my take on it is not far off from Stiofan's...if I ran my notebook for long periods of time, I would probably use one, they do somewhat help...but in my case, my HP dv6625us actually runs fairly cool, and I do not leave it on unattended for hours on end, so I have not used one with it...but, I do not think that it is an unwise purchase. For around $20, for notebooks, that are somewhat prone to heating issues, it is a cheap enough price for a little "insurance". -- ...something is happening here but you don't know what it is...do you, Mr. Jones? |
