    i was just wondering since im a gamer and my laptop heats up and stuff. i was wondering what kind of laptop cooler i should get? i have the HP 17" Pavilion dv7 notebook and its pretty big and stuff and i already have one cooler but it only cools the middle section and the top left gets super hot in the hp pavilion dv7. so if anyone knows about the dv7 and what notebook would be the best or ideal one plz comment

    I have heard the Cryo LX is one of the best

    Search the threads for a 17" laptop cooler, there has been alot of threads debating this... Im sure with a little time rifting through these you'll find your perfect fit :D

    i originally bought a dv5, and a cooler master notepal infinite to cool it. well, i returned my dv5 for a dv7 and still use the cooler master. it does hang off a total of about 2 inches on the sides, but it seems to keep the unit pretty cool. i have nothing to compare to, but it works for me. (it's also affordable and lightweight)

    To match up with your vents, I'd say the cooler master notepal infinite would be a nice fit.

    if u aren't too worried about transporting yur cooler with u, very often, then the cryo LX would be yur best choice.

    u can find one for about the same price as the nc-2000. i got mine off of ebay a while back for about $80 bucks shipped. if u have any questions about it, don't be afraid to ask.

    if u ask me, the cryo LX is by far, the best cooler on the market right now. the cryo LX was purposely built for "gaming/power notebooks."

    check this thread out. it should answer most, if not all yur questions about the cryo LX.

    garetjax also did a review, found here.
