    Hello every1,
    recently i was looking for a notebook cooler to buy one and I stopped my searching at some models of zalman namely :
    -NC 1000
    -NC 2000
    - ZM-NC 1500(a new one)
    I have a Compal FL90 laptop. I use it for almost everything with big majority of games (pushing laptop to the limits). I care about performance :). Which one would you advise me to buy?

    The NC1000 would be closest fit if you don't want the cooler to be larger than your notebook, but with the NC2000 you will have more vent surface that will cover the entire width of the notebook. The ZM-NC doesn't look like the best choice for cooling. It's a notebook stand with a fan rather than a notebook cooler. If you desire the adjustable height over cooling performance then go for it, but it doesn't look like that's the case for you.

    I'd say the NC 2000
