Cooling pad for 19inch laptop?

[XanthePandy]

My boyfriend's laptop is getting a little old and worn out now with a serious overheating problem. Can anybody recommend a good cooling pad for a 19inch laptop or alternatives that I could buy him?

Thank you.

Zalman cooling pads are my personal preference if you're just looking to cool it down, but they aren't very comfortable if you want to put it on your lap. I have some cheap no-name one with a padded bottom that I used for lap use when I was watching TV in the living room or whatever (or did, my big ass laptop is really just an underpowered desktop these days, I use my M11x for pretty much everything nowadays).

For a 19 inch laptop though you might want to look into this one - > http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834997340 Kind of expensive but most coolers only stretch out to 17".

I like how no one ever uses the search function on the forum.

I think this is completely viable as a new topic since it's bloody difficult to find a cooling pad for a larger laptop.

I use this for my 17inch M17x:

Effective in my opinion, and very quiet (it's one huge fan!) and has lights, but can be turned off. It sucks air from the bottom and pushes it up onto the laptop which aids the 2 fans on my laptop in grabbing "fresh" (cool?) air.

Very pricey, but for such an investment to make your the laptop last a bit longer this is no waste of money in my opinion.

The one I suggested for Sath in his thread was compatible with 19" laptops.
