    I don't actually believe in laptop coolers. I don't think that your laptop will have extended lifespan with an external cooler. It might run a bit cooler, but I wouldn't trade a few degrees for increased noise.

    My a8js never gets hot unless i block the fan area. Max load is still cool.
    The g1 had the same hardware in an even bigger case so I doubt you need a cooler.

    Theres nothing really to overclock. At maximum overclock of the gpu its still under 70c

    I recently bought the VANTEC LapCool2 and I'm loving it so far. It gives you 4 extra USB ports, a fan control and fits my G1 perfectly. I recommend this cooler by far.

    When i got my A8Jp at the computer fair, i got a cooler for free. not a branded one, just a raised acrylic with 2 fans.
