So i got the idea of making a costume cooling pad for my laptop. I was thinking of buying a case fan and putting it under the intake of the laptops fan.
So i did some research and looked up "fan stacking". And found out that stacking fans is a bad idea because it doesnt really do anything but produce more noise most of the time.
And my question is if I do put the case fan under the laptops fan wouldnt it be just like stacking fans and in the end - useless? Or maybe the slight gap between the cooling pad and the laptop makes the differance here?
Would mounting the fan with a bigger gap between the laptop and the fan increase cooling?
Maybe someone could explin in more detail how a cooling pad gets the job done?
