    Hey, my Asus Z71V laptop has problems with overheating. Even on a complely hard flat surface, it shuts off if I am playing an online game for too long (2-4 hours). The fan simply cant cool it off fast enough, so I know I need to get an addtional one.

    Can someone give me some recommendations for a notebook fan that will keep my laptop nice and cool? I dont know the prices, but if the only one that can help me is expencive, I would buy :p

    Thanks

    if you mean a notebook cooling fan. I would suggest the evercool 4 fan pad because it pushes the most air of all them (40 CF/m). I Don't think any notebook pad, however, will make more than a few degrees difference....but that's pretty good seeing how this one is also one of the cheapest I found.
