    Hello. I was just curious as to what cooling pad/fans/etc, if any, and what laptop size, that people use. I recently bought an Aspire 5920G and am seeking to add some cooling to it.

    So, X2P, what you're saying in the guide is that I should have a cooler that has fans positioned around the notebook's fan right? I'm getting my 8920 this week and I'm looking for a cooling pad, since the fan is on the far left corner, I guess I should look for a pad that has fans in the corners, or am I completely lost here?

    Basically yes. The only exceptions are teh Zalman NC series and the Notepal infinite. I personally recommend Zalman seeing as it is silent effectiveness.

    Thank you Sir. Now I've used this website for a while, but is there no search function for the forums? Just to maybe prevent me from posting new topics that have been asked before :p
