Hello, I have MSI Ex623 (intel dual core T3400 2,16Ghz 1,2125V @ 1,0125V, 4Gb ram, geforce 9500M GS 512MB 1.2V @ 1,15V ...) and I want to know If I need cooling pad.
My load temperatures while playing COD 4 are (25C ambient temp,NTB is without dust): 65C CPU, 40C HDD, 75C GPU. I know that these temperatures arent in "danger zone" but they arent ideal.
So I want to know what do you think about it? Do I need cooling pad?
Would be there any benefit of cooling pad? For example longer ntb life? Because I buy new ntb very rarely.
Thanks

aren't ideal? that is a temperature which i would die for
no, i don't think you need to buy a cooling pad. waste of money. -
No benefit to a cooling pad. These products are designed to work without them.

why not?
try zalman nc2000.you have great temps but with cooler they will be extreme awesome.
if i were you i would try to go more for extreme cooling performance.apply a good thermal paste undervolt and temps can matter up to 30C.so you are saying that you got 90 from english lesson and it is a good note and you can go more?wouldnt you?go for better tempertures. -
Yup those temps are allright but if you get a cooling pad, they will be lower meaning that you can overclock more and get more performance out of the notebook.

The cooler you laptop is the longer it will last.. and the more you can push it.. if you so desire..
In my honest opinion.. I have my first laptop cooler.. the thing I would mention is if you use you laptop in your lap.. think about a lapdesk.. that way the air flow under your cooler does not stop flowing..
and look at the bottom of your laptop.. you dont want to force air into the out blowing fan.. so take that into consideration...
HDX 18t with a QuadCore 8gb of ram.. Zalman NC-2000.. I read what the
D900F guys where using and bought that.. to be clear.. I followed the pros here to a great cooler..
I hope this helped and be well, JW -
Thanks everyone for your opinion ...
Im not extreme gamer, so I dont need to overclock my ntb (I have PC for that). So only think I expect form cooling pad is longer ntb life but im not sure if 10C drop would provide that. -
In my personal opinion, for the temperatures you're getting, a cooler is not required.
Although if possible, undervolt your gpu to 0.89v ... should shave off a few more degrees.

A two inch thick hard styrofoam block might do as well.
If you think about it, cooling pads do two things. Keep the heat away from your lap and move air.
Well, the styrofoam will keep the heat away from your lap, and being a hard flat surface will let the notebook fan work to move the air. And at no cost in battery life. -
We tried to solve it here http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=408150&page=6 , but with no results -
Be well, JW -
There are 2 ways of modding temps on Nibitor one is by label the other is exact voltage.
By label enables you to go down to 0.8 -
