    Hey guys, Im new in the forum

    Ive got terrible heat problems with my 3 year old toshiba sattelite a210 15,4" notebook (it turns off after 15minutes playing or about 25 when I increase the room between notebook and desk with some books)

    So I decided to buy a cooler - Ive got only low budget - so I decided to either pick the Coolermaster X2 or Coolermaster E1 -

    I checked the coolermaster webpage and it seems that
    E1 has the bigger fan

    and the

    X2 is more silent

    but which one has the better cooling perfomance?
    I live in europe and the pricing is near equal so its only the cooling performance which counts, I dont even care for the silence that much

    Many thanks for your help!

    On my opinion, theoretically the E1 should have better performance because of the bigger fan with higher airflow. I do not see any advantage that a fan with higher static pressure can have compared to the normal geometry fans. I see no reason why it should be louder. The only cons may be worse built quality compared to the X2 and possible problems with finding appropriate fan when you need to change it after a few years. Otherwise it's the better buy for me and I will probably get one too in several weeks for my HP Elitebook 8530w.
