    Why are you already worrying about cooling? Are you going to be overclocking? Or gaming on your lap?

    the nc2000 would work fine for general cooling purpose, but it looks like u will be doin some gamin (p-7811fx). gamin notebooks will have their more important vents/fans (CPU & GPU) towards the rear/mid area. there are other coolers out there that will outperform the nc2000, if u are lookin for more serious coolin.

    just try to find a cooler that will line up with yur notebook's vents/fans and accommodate yur coolin needs.

    Oh so I should wait to see where the fans on the bottom and then look for a cooler that covers the fan.

    Have a look at your notebooks bottom ...and then choose your cooler..

    the RAM slots + Graphic card + processor are the main components that need cooling... HDD cools easily

    Ok I`m buying the hp dv5t and the fans are all over the place. I've looked for hours trying to find one. In a review I found it said if raise the back up an inch it would cool down so I think I'm going to get the laptop cooler s since there like 8 vents on the bottom of it.

    Most people put a heater on their water beds. But I want a cooler on mine. That's because I plan to fill the bed with beer, not water.

    i still say raising your notebook a bit is the best, most cost effective, way to cool the machine.
