Room temp is normally about 68 (unless the wife feels the need to increase it, silly girl, to 70) I'm stuck in a little folding desk type of thing in the living room against an exterior wall at a large window (so it's a little cooler on that wall. I'm near a forced air floor heat register but I've got the air deflected from it with one of those nifty little plastic/magnetic airflow diverting things made for vents. I've got curtains that are sometimes open, sometimes closed but I keep the back of the laptop at least 8 inches away from the wall/curtains to avoid having the computer ingest it's own magma like noxious heat fumes 😄
I bought a cooler master notepal x3....noticed no cooling so returned it and got a coolermaster sf 19.....but I haven't had time to mess with the new one. I've never really given much clout to laptop coolers....seems like a gimmick to me but it's got big fans, looks and sounds obnoxious with the pretty multi-colored lights, so it's a keeper. What's your opinion on coolers? I've always thought that anything stiff and flat for those in-bed movies will keep the bottom sucking good air and vents not closed off.
