Guys, let me know if there is any difference between a RM20 cooler pad and a RM100 plus cooler pad.
The speed RPM of the fan is higher for the more expensive model? Better cooling?

Well, yea. But do note the laptop bottom chassis air vent position. Buy the cooler with the air blowing into the bottom laptop air vent.

Well, just flip the laptop upside down and you'll see the air vent.The bottom air vent is usually for air intake and then release through the fan either from the side or at the back of the laptop.

Confirm this again with you..This is the back part of my laptop. The part highlighted with pink colour, that's the air vent? And if yes, i think i seldom see any cooler pad blowing directly at the bottom part, most of them are blowing in the middle

For me it isnt enough for the powerful hardware inside  . That air vent is directed at the hardisk, ram so cooler pad wont do much..... I think la. Other than that you can try with cooler pad and yes it is the air vent. Cooler master U2 or U3 series can position the fan. But will cost you some $$. Look it up This post has been edited by AthrunIJ: Jul 16 2015, 02:54 PM

expensive ones usually are aluminium and have better usb cables for their fans...
not like the cheap plastic ones that break after few months... or even worse the fan is more of a visual effect than really blowing air...
The only complaint i have about the U3 is the edges of the cooler... they are quite sharp.. and my headphones sometimes get caught in the gap above the bottom rubber piece

Max temp would be around 60 ~ 70 celcius. Well, it is your decision. Happy hunting

Yaa in my opinion, laptop cooler just direct more dust into the laptop itself faster..just my opinion  ... paying hundreds of ringgit for a slight temp decrease just not justify for me (surely depending on the air vent design of the laptop itself... what if you guys try air sucker instead? I dunno much about its effectiveness.. but some shop claimed it better than cooler... need some review on this matter...

Usually 4k below so called gaming laptop isnt really one with the design of the laptop chassis. Sad really. Air sucker? First time i heard about it.
