    I was wondering if anyone has a Toshiba Satellite P300 and use a cooler for it because recently i've been having heating problems but i'm not sure which cooler would be best for the vent placement.

    It's quite hard finding a good cooler for a 17" laptop but i've narrowed it down to the Zalman ZM-NC2000B, Zalman ZM-NC3000U, Cooler Master U3 or the Enermax Aeolus.

    Also if there's any other coolers that would be better please suggest them.

    Have you done maintence on your pc? Clean the vents, reapply thermal compound to cpu and gpu? Generally, if the laptop is starting to overheat cooler won't save it. The problem will only get worse. :(
