    I like the giant 23cm fan =D great way to have lots of airflow and remain relatively quiet. Also, I rather like the thermaltake Massive23 CS, all aluminum. The on/off switch is a plus, since i've used gone through a few coolers myself, where none of them had that, it's quite the bonus. The only thing now, is to test the lifespan of this baby ^.^. Most notebook cooler's i've used lasted less than a year :o . but im sure the thermaltake one will last much longer =D

    Yeah I would probably prefer the aluminum too, but surprisingly the ST performs well even though its made mostly of plastic

    It must be the giant 23cm fan doing most of the work =P. I guess the aluminum is mainly for appeal, =)

    undervolting decreases your speed, =(. This notebook cooler is relatively inexpensive, and i'd prefer a faster proc.

    I don't know why you would want to undervolt this laptop cooler.

    Not saying undervolt the cooler, he's saying he'd rather undervolt the proc than buy a cooler. Since this is a relatively inexpensive cooler i said i'd prefer the speed over the underclocked core

    Power saving features do this for you automatically and using a laptop cooler is a bonus.

    lol, that'd be one prety expensive room fan =P. plus it won't oscillate. Maybe screw it on to, a computer side panel, lol or just remove that fan and attach it to your computer somehow

    I would remove the fan.

  • Anon

    My question is though, does it blow air up at the bottom of the computer or suck it down like some other fans?
