    Hi everyone,

    just got my P150HM and I was thinking about getting the Cooler Master Notepal U3 (fairly cheap and good from what I read).

    Just wanted to hear about some experiences from you guys who also bought this Notepal or a similar one or about using a Cooling Pad with the P150HM in general...


    Thanks in advance

    The U series is pretty good if plan on modding it (the stock fans are garbage). U2 would probably be a better option though since there's only 2 vents which aren't intake. Stacking fans over the intake could either improve or worsen temps, make sure you read into that.

    But I'm not sure a cooler is even needed on this amazing machine. Light workload temps for me don't exceed 40C, on my last laptop (with 2630QM) it often reached 60C just opening tabs lol

    Unless you've got rather high temps, you probably don't need a cooler. If you're just looking for a hard surface to play on, you can get much cheaper objects than a cooler.

    That said, I've seen recommendations for the Notepal U series and the Coolermaster SF-19
