G1S owners: name your favorite laptop cooler?

As the post says,

I'm looking to purchase a G1S, and was wondering for those who have a laptop cooler...

do you have a favorite that's quiet, fits in a bag, fits the G1S appropriately (not too big or small) and works like its suppose to?

thanks!

 

I have a Thermaltake iXoft for my current laptop. It works great, really does what it's supposed to and it's silent!

You can be sure I'll use it for G1S!!

 

I don't have a G1s =) but I use antecs notebook cooler for both my laptop and my xbox 360. Does a good job.

 

I have the Antec Laptop Cooler. Used it with a DV9000t 17 inch laptop (before I returned it and bought a G1S ) and it worked well - the laptop fans didn't go on nearly as often when gaming. It was a tad small for the dv9000t so it should fit the G1S well. It's silent, light and cheap!

 

I use this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834999336

It's a little loud, but I wear headphones most of the time or am playing music, so I don't care. It's no louder than a normal desktop tower fan.

 

There was one 50 dollar one that someone showed me on these forums not to long ago, I can't remember the make or model, but it looks excellent. If I find it I will show you guys.

EDIT: Found it. Zalman NC-1000

I hsve the same product and find my laptop is still hot to the touch. my cpu heat, i have been told, is below average. But the right side of my G1S is very hot, so i'd suggest getting a fan. The iXoft is nice if you wanna rest the laptop on your legs though. But if i could go back in time i'd take that money and buy a fan.

*EDIT*
I see only a 1-2 degree(C) in difference in my cpu when i don't use the Thermapad.

 

There is a nice sentence there:

I have no idea why i should need this as long as i am not OCing...

 

i just ordered my g1s today, but i plan on buying the antec notebook cooler tomorrow to use in conjunction with it.

it's not too bad at roughly $30 and is usb-powered too. i use the same product for my 360 and it works great! i have heard of notebooks having problems down the road resulting from heating so i suggest you pick up a cooler once you decide to buy the g1s.

plus, it looks really sleek and should match the laptop nicely.

 

hey there, i'm just posting again because i just bought my antec notebook cooler, but not from newegg. not only is the cooler out of stock on newegg, but it's a bit pricier than where i decided to buy it: circuitcity.com

http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Ante...89840/catOid/-15021/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do

it's only $24.99, and for what it's worth, it's excellent. just thought i would put that out there.

I have the Antec and it does indeed work well. One thing I don't like about it is that the laptop is higher sitting on it and it can be a tad awkward. Not enough of a big deal to make me buy something else (for now) but if I had to do it over again I'd probably give the Spire Pacific Breeze a shot as it only tilts the back of the laptop up.
