I need a laptop cooler.

[stewie574]

As the title indicates, i need a laptop cooler, but I'm not sure what brand makes the best kind, or if I should get one fan or two, etc.

Can you guys help me out? I'd prefer not spending above $30, so any price below that would be great.

Thanks!

I got this one as a present a couple years ago. I like it because even without the fans on it has a large volume of air underneath it so even if your laptop's fans point down you will still have air to move. I almost never use the fans because my laptop has a side fan but having the air volume underneath definitely helps keep it cool enough. When playing a system intense game I'll use the fans but that is about it.

Some people will say usb powered coolers are bad because they use up your battery I honestly think that if I had to plug in my cooler then what is the point of having a laptop.

When I go to his place, I always use this when I play an intense game. It costs around 19 dollars. There's a three fan option one which is just under 30 dollars.

If you're not going to play a really intense game then I would suggest you just to get the two fan one because it's cheaper and it's just what you need.
