Have you ever thought of cooling down your laptop a little bit extra? Are you anoyed of the fan-noice when you are watching movies?
Here are three unique and cool (hehehe) solutions. The first one, called the Waldic (water & air laptop direct input cooler) which was made for lowering the fan-noice while watching movies is a kind of attachment you put on the laptop-side. The temperature dropped from about 65*C to about low 40*C when activating the “water-mode”. That’s a nice laptop cooler.

The second system is a forced-air system which like the air cooling systems on any regular car. The results from this method was brilliant.
The GPU peaked 80*C at 250mhz and when he mounted his cooling unit, he clocked it to 370mhz and it peaked at 69*C. Along with this he increased his fps with about 50% in BF2, from 50fps to 75fps.

The third system is another air-cooler, which looks quite “cheap” but is supposed to work quite good anyway. Here’s a embedded video of the cooler:

Thats some cheap and effective laptop coolers and some cheap performance boosts!
