    newegg.com search for 'laptop coolers' you'll not only find numerous coolers but fair amount of user reviews as well.

    If you want optimal cooling:

    Find the hotspots of your laptop first. Usually near the HDD/Processor/GPU area. Then find a laptop cooler that will match these hotspots accordingly. This way the fans are in position just below the hotspots instead of the wrong areas.
