Thermaltake Intros Flashy LifeCool Notebook Cooler

[citation][nom]kelvinty[/nom]Hm... you obvious haven't dealt with ASUS G50 series or G71 and DV7 with decent graphics card.Try running them with primark + furmark 5 hours. See who is laughing, ambient temperature being around 23 Degrees Celcius.hm... seems like someone doesn't have all the facts.I work with notebooks, it's my job, I think I know a bit more than the average bear.[/citation]

By the way his point of view is correct to certain extent, 8xxxM series GPUs had some serious issues, and lots of them died prematurely, one could get them repaired but that wasn't a guarantee that all will be okay afterwards. In fact my older HP 1125-EM with 9200GS too started having issues (like corrupted graphics etc.) so I 'disposed it off' in a timely manner 😉

[citation][nom]apache_lives[/nom]hmmmm how about you go take a look at how long i have been here and how many posts i have for a start - the 1970 bug tells you everythingNO LAPTOP HAS A DEDICATED FAN FOR RAM NOR IS IT NEEDED, also the GPU would be cooled by the same heatpipe or hsf as the cpu/chipset, the DV9000 has a tiny but dedicated hsf, the DV2000 also does not. DV6000 series isnt a gaming laptop either, dont know what you can "play" on it.I have torn apart and reflowed so many laptops with nvidia graphics its not funny i can tell you in detail what to expect with all models, i can tell you the DV2000 is more complex to tear apart then a DV6000 or DV9000 or the newer HP's thanks to having 10x the ammount of unique screws everywhere and the top palm rest flexing and never bending into shape 100% again.This is amazing coming from someone who owns a DV6000 HP the WORST MOST UNRELIABLE LAPTOP IN THE WORLD where did you get the idea to buy that? [/citation]

I bought it for $100 three years ago, son. All you do is make assumptions. Also, I (of course) didn't buy the Intel model, because I'm not an idiot. The Nvidia GPU (6100) is just below the trackpad, My. Know-It-Nothing.

I never said it was a good laptop, but this laptop's mere existence justifies devices such as this thermaltake. What we're all saying is that your elitist-snob "opinion" is completely invalid here. Just deal with it and quit crying about being wrong.

oh and errr that chip under your DV6000 touchpad btw - thats the south bridge

I think the cliche quote best describes this.
Arguing on the internet is like participating in a Olympic for retards. Even if you win, you are still retarded.

What lordstormdragon is saying is that, there is a market for cooling pads because people (who aren't tech-savy like me) have "faulty" laptops and want a quick-fix solution without having to learn how to replace parts.

While apache_lives who seems very tech-savy is stating that people don't need cooling pads because if your laptop overheats then it is a faulty product.

You are both correct. There IS a market for cooling pads and if a person needs one, they have a faulty product. Which pretty much concludes as, there is a huge number of faulty laptops out there. Now stop arguing.

[citation][nom]kelvinty[/nom]apache_lives:If you own any sort of relatively high power notebook, e.g. ASUS G-series, MSI GT683... etc then you will know most large notebooks have stupid cooling designs. Their stupid cooling designs then leads to CPU throttling, GPU FPS drops, reduce in life-span and very very warm palm rest...You can also try HP, most of the slightly older notebooks have a weird bend next to their heatsink which traps tremendous amount of dust... Or some even older Acer notebooks, they run extremely hot and eventually, something will be toasted inside within 3 years...Some notebooks, do need cooler. "Just Saying. -____-""As of this particular pad, the height seems rather large and cannot be adjusted...[/citation]

My Asus G50vt runs quite cool for the components under the hood, even with the GPU and CPU cores all fully taxed. Quite good for a single-fan setup.

@apache_lives: The only fact here is that you are unaware of the definition of the words "fact" and "opinion". It is your opinion that no laptop should every need external cooling. It is your opinion (as well as mine) that the DV6000 is garbage. It is your opinion that you know anything at all, Apache, because that is all based directly on the definition of the word opinion. Here's a refresher, son:

o·pin·ion
   /əˈpɪnyən/ [uh-pin-yuhn]
noun
1.
a belief or judgment that rests on grounds insufficient to produce complete certainty.
2.
a personal view, attitude, or appraisal.
3.
the formal expression of a professional judgment: to ask for a second medical opinion.

For something to be a fact, it has to be quantifiable and falsifiable, but proven to be unfalsifiable. Your judgments and analyses are both judgments and analyses, but also opinions. We'd love to see you produce a fact though - you weren't even correct about the layout in the laptop I was discussing, kiddo.

MSI lol there a joke, HP yes there cooling designs redirect (kill airflow) with stupid ~45º down angle airflow direct and asus are generally well designed with exceptions.

Nvidia GPU's and chipsets regardless of cooling WILL die after a few years - there poor products (still) - this product will not stop that.

You don't even know the difference between "there", "their", and "they're" yet, but while somehow contractions and conjugations escape you, we're supposed to pretend you're able to cognitize various computer configurations. Laughable.
