    I use this same one and it works great. It is very quiet since the fan is so large but does not spin as fast as some of the others. A quiet cooler was important to me instead of a wind tunnel. There is also a compartment in the back to store the usb cable. It is very solid (no flex when carrying it around by one end and there is a handle on each side. These handles are great to carry the M11x around since it fits nicely between the 2 handles.

    Cheers,
    Stain

    Coolermaster X1. Its not huge like the x2 but the mesh is slippery and i use rubberbands to hold it place.

    Logitech Cooling Pad N100. The main purpose of it is to elevate the m11x, so the intake for the fan isnt flat on the desk.
