I bought a CM Notepal V1 for my lappie.

Bought @ RM50.

Last 3 PCFairs I think.

If the cooler gets warm ,is it good or bad? And I really want to overvolt the cooler's fans. Feels slow..

dont just buy cooler... find out how to take apart the laptop and clean the dust from the heatsink and reapply thermal paste

It would be nice if someone could do a step by step guide for most major laptop brands. (Dell, Acer, HP etc)

Has anyone noticed that the Cooler Master Notepal X1 has an OEM version?

The CM costs around Rm70-RM80.

The OEM one costs less than RM50.

Oh, just wanna ask, can the RPM of the fan be increased via USB?

If the laptop cooler does not come with variable speed controller.

Higher RPM.... Aluminium cooler does nothing to disperse heat because your notebook doesn't touch the aluminium portion. How disperse without touching it ?

Hmm.

Then how come my alu cooler gets really hot when the notebook is also hot?
