    I came across this cooling box on the Chinese Taobao web site.

    According to comment from customers, they could lower temperature of CPU or GPU by 10-20C. By connecting it to exhaust vent, it help pulling hot air out faster. There are also complaints about noise, which is to be expected.

    I have not seen any reference anywhere on internet in English. This box may be a good solution for the 2nd GPU.

    Here is link to the listing on Taobao.

    You can get a nice cooler like the NotePal X-Slim for under 20$, and from what I can recall, it did drop the temperature 5-10 C.

    Awesome find, let me know how It goes and where I can order one?

    In response to external laptop cooler, it helps but the laptop still runs above 80 degrees under load
