    OK so me and my little brother just made a note book cooler.

    I used to have my OC settings at 625 925 1550. On my 8800m GTS.

    The notebook cooler consists of 4 fans.

    One fan on the GPU fan blowing into it.

    Another on the CPU fan blowing into it as well.

    One Fan sucking air out of the heatsink on the left side.

    And another fan blowing air under the CPU hatch making the air circulation larger.

    And now i am going to OC my GPU to 650 950 1600 and see what my results are.

    No Cooler
    *all temps in Centigrade scale*

    OC

    CPU IDLE: 45
    CPU LOAD: 55-60

    GPU IDLE: 55
    GPU LOAD: 65

    With Cooler IB [Code name ICEBOX]

    CPU IDLE : 35
    CPU LOAD: 41*46

    GPU IDLE: 37!C
    GPU LOAD: 46!C

    SUPER IMPROVEMENT.

    PICS WILL BE UP SOON

    It only crashes on warhead at the moment. Which i have just finished testing.

    They worked perfectly on warhead and on Crysis. So far.

    I will continue testing and reporting back. Subscribe to the thread if you like.

    My current highest temps is 49 playing Crysis and Warhead.

    It almost in the 30s with other games.

    I will get back to ya'll as soon as i can.

    I will continue testing the Crysis trilogy games and report back. With CoD4, UT3. Please request which games you would like me to test with the new IB Cooler i made.

    Edit: These fans spin at intense RPM rates. They are desktop fans jumped to a AC adapter so i don't have to use a MB and a PSU to run them.

    Thanks alot.

    I will be buying rubber pads to put on the fans to reduce friction as much as possible.

    Though those temps are very legitimate. And i am happy that i did not have to spend money on a cooler.
