Notepal W1 by Cooler Master customade

Hi,

I just bought a Notebook cooler by Cooler Master, 3 fans for custom-made for widescreen notebook. I like the brand very much, but I was shock when the first few hours I used it with my Acer Aspire 5670, I dont feel any changes of the surface temperature.

I realized that it blows air onto the notebook not sucking it out from the notebook. According to my not too cleaver physics knowledge, supposely it should suck hot air out from the notebook. Even more, the blowing air into the notebook is opposing the notebook's CPU fan.

After I reverse the fan direction to suck air out from the notebook, I found out that the temperature decrease dramatically. Not hot no more, and the performance increases.

My doubt right now, am I doing the correct thing? by reversing the fan.

Thanks.

 

if it makes it cooler i don't see why it's not the correct thing..even if it didn't come that way from the factory

 

Well, as long as it follows your notebook's fan setup. If your notebook sucks air in on the bottom, you should set it to blow air.

And, if your notebook blows air, you should set it to suck air. Two fans opposing each other wouldn't do much good. You should be fine.

I wish manufacturers would list if their coolers blew or sucked more often.

 

yeah, i thing so. I already send an inquiry about this to the cooler master support team. Hope to get response from them soon..

Thanks

 

yeah, my bytecc cooler has just normal desktop cooling fans so theyre easily reversible.
