ahaks.. just found this topic..

currently using coolver master notepal U2..
very impressive cooler, and what i like most, u can reposition the fan anywhere u like..

and to upgrade it, i add with Kaku (formally known as Seada) 240 AV fan on the cooler.. result? very satisfied!

will upload the pics later..huhu

adding another fan.. originally got 2 x 5V fan, powered by USB.. then i add 1 more fan..

for the 12V fan, i modified it, connect the fan with AC power adapter.. currently i add this fan to my router, as it on 24hr non stop, easy to get hot..

basically i'm using adapter like this one..


just cut the wire an connect to the fan according to +- terminal.. and set the adapter to 12V..

both can.. but i prefer tilt design.. before u built the pad, make sure u already study the air flow of your laptop's cooler.. different laptop have different design of air flow.. some got exhaust at side, some on the back.. most important things is the air flow design, not how strong the fan blow air.. if your air flow design cun, then ordinary 12V fan is enough..huhu..

refer to this picture..


see the power supply adapter? he means dat thing..huhu..

uhu..not bad..

here's mine.. the big fan just for temporary only.. still thinking new layout.. but i love this cooler pad.. very easy to place the fan anywhere i want..huhu..





based on record, by using speedfan 4.40, i got 70++ for proc's temp.. that's before i use this cooler pad.. rite now maintain below 70..

acer 3680, proc t5300..
i know that.. i've used 3 software to detect the temp.. speedfan 4.40, everest ultimate and realtemp 3.40..
and all software gave me 3 different value..the difference between each value is whithin 10'C range.. which one should i choose..huhu...

ahaks.. thanks..the temp show 50++..
maybe i put excessive thermal paste during last service..
gonna fix it..huhu..

led? ermm.. u planning to use 5v @ 12v power supply?

bout the red led.. not so clear whut u wanna do.. wanna get rid of it or want to light up whole pad with red light?

ahaks.. since u already opened ur cooler pad, y dont u just bend the red led towards backside instead frontside?

ahaks.. before this i also placed my 240v fan like dat.. very effective..

nop.. u can see from my previous pic.. the big black fan stick on my cooler pad..huhu

haha.. i boght at sri komputer... just RM24.00..
of coz powerful n bit noisy, but not so loud to irritate me..huhu..

so effective, u can replace your table fan with this fan..blow ur face..huhu
