I think screen protectors for laptops are not cheap if I didn't remember wrongly.. I dun really think there's a need la if we're careful enough... Our desktop LCD Monitors dun even need them either ar...

Luckily most of the games I play have no problems with the Optimus/Nvidia 335M card, especially after I updated to the latest 258.96 drivers.

Guys, anyone know which cooler is suitable for A42Jv? As, I might leave my laptop on 24/7 for downloading stuffs, I am planning to get a proper one that is actually effective for lowering temperature unlike the freebies version..
Any good recommendations? Cooler Master D1 good enough ar?

Since the ventilation hole on the CPU is so small, even smaller than those on Compaq V3000 series, seems like the intake air is from the front side, beside the speaker....

Still can't find the sweet spot to cool down the A42Jv...

e.g. for my Acer, if I put the fan towards the heatsink where the hot air supposed to come out, it drop my CPU temp by 20C, from 6xC max to around 43C max, idle is around 29C. with non-aircond room...
