    Im looking for something similar to this, for the xps. Anybody have any recommendations? Not sure this one will work because the one I brought at a nightmarket only fits my gf's laptop and not this one due the grill shape.
    Is anyone using one for the xps ? Already have a regular notebook cooler,but its too bulkly most of time.

    I cannot really see the point, why u should use something like this. My guess is that you would burn down your GPU within a few minutes, because the only place where this thing fits is the VGA exhauster. Blowing back the hot air into the machine is definitely a stupid idea.

    Search for a cooler pad, the GPU is not critically overheating, but the HDD can turn hot sometimes

    It does the opposite of what you say, it helps blows hot air out.
