    My Apologies for this post, I know there's a long thread for this but I was only able to find the M15x cooling pad thread....

    Anyways... can you guys recommend a good (great) cooling pad for the M17x?

    The Zalman is far inferior for the Alienware notebooks because it has fans at the front whereas the notebook's vents are at the back.

    As the others have said, the Cryo LX is the best option with fans at the back. The Antec 200 is also meant to be good with its 'big boy' fan.
