icic, i'll try it..but is it hard to do? i mean removing the heatsink n applying the paste. and which 1 should i buy, ac5? recommend me pls, thx!!!

mostly people use AS5, but some review said arctic mx1 is better

hey, erm.. what if a cooler master notepal 2 fans vs cooler master notepal 3 fans difference ah?
2 fans : rm 120
3 fans rm 170

which better? going headache..... since adds 1 more fans adds rm50? =.="

No worries lar... 3 fan and 1 fan also no diff ler.

The whole point of notebook cooler is just to raise the height of the lappy niah to allow free'er circulation underneath niah

mind if i ask, what is 'niah' sniper?

'niah' is sniper language. hehe

Hahahah.... niah = sound = syiok = no meaning

How about 2 fan cooler master notepal (RM90) + DIY add 1 more fan (RM18) + 12V adapter (RM10)...sure boost the performance...I just did it today ...

Normal usage with cooler


Sorry i cant show my original 2 fan notepal result coz alrdy mod n change all the wiring...Next time mayb i can show my gaming result...

why not post some worklog here? DIY notebook coolers? more update guys

Hihi.. Im new here and Im using Notepal W1 and kinda disappointed as only my hdd is cool but cpu is still very cool.

May I ask where do u guys buy the adapter for the fan as I think I wanna make an UV fan rig for my laptop and speaker. lolx

old handphone charger or other electronic device adapter will do...see the spec bro, dun burn ur fan...

Hi long time never been here..... a normal 12v dc adapter(Jln pasar got plenty) is more than enought ald and the price also cheap.I think handphone charger is still not enought lah the voltage is not hi enought(~5-7v) only, unless ur fan(normal fan 12v) is small voltage 1 lah.

Bro where u buy this ?? how much ?

ermm can sum1 teach me how to connect the ac adaptor to the fan?? pics will be better...thx

guys, i'm planning to do my own cooler pad but i'm wondering, if i buy the vizo 80mm fan with speed of 5800rpm, is a 12v adapter enough for me to get the maximum speed?and btw, i know there's a few compaq v3000 user here complaining bout the heat..i have an idea actually..if you guys notice the hole for the gc fans(at the top left bottom of your laptop), its only open for 1/4..if you guys can poke the rest of the holes(meaning full circle),it can suck in more air into the GC..logically it will la but i havent done it cause i dont have the right tools to do it..maybe some of you can try..cheers..

Well.I'm too lazy to mod another casing with small pretty fans considering the fact i have one laptop cooler already.So I just bought one 240V AC fan and blow my laptop.Manage to cool the hard drive from operating temp of 47 C to 38 C. O yea.My fan is damn noisy though.
