Customer Review: Quite Simply The Best
Summary: 5 Stars
After buying several of these laptop coolers, this one, the nzxt acc-ct-cryo-lx 120mm fans, is by far the best out there at this moment.
I have a brand new 17inch Macbook Pro that overheats when I play Battlefield 2142, then the game crashes. I went through and tried every software update possible, then I even tried changing some hardware with no luck. So, I replaced all of the original hardware, and started buying laptop coolers realizing an actual difference and I could play a little longer.
I finally bought this nzxt laptop cooler and saw the greatest difference in temperature of my macbook pro while I was playing Battlefield 2142, in comparison to all the other laptop coolers that I bought.
In order to power the fans on the cooler, you can just plug it into your laptop using the provided USB cable, or you can plug it into a wall outlet with the adapter that is provided. However, the manufacturer does NOT recommend that you use only the USB cable to power the fans, because it could draw too much power through the USB plug on your laptop that it can burn and damage it, especially if you leave it plugged into the USB for a while, when its only being powered by the USB cable. So, you just have to make sure you can plug into a wall outlet in order to power the fans, or it can be used just as well without the fans for convection cooling.
This cooler also provides an ergonomic adjustment so that you can type comfortably without wrist pain, as the rear of the laptop will sit 2 inches higher than if you were to use the laptop with out this. Which also means that the laptop screen sits higher up so that it is more level with your eyes, reducing neck strain.
Now that I have 3 other laptop coolers, I thought to use one of those laptop coolers in conjunction with the nzxt cooler that I just bought and it works even better now.
Now, under the nzxt cooler, I'm using the ILap 17 inch laptop stand by Rain. On top of the laptop stand is the nzxt cooler, which not only raises my laptop another 2 inches, but the nzxt cooler is sucking cold air off of the top of the aluminum surface of the laptop stand, and the air is then sent up and against the bottom of my laptop. Now I've got the laptop running 2 more degrees colder than if the cooler was just by itself!!!
I also attached 4, 1 cm tall, rubber feet with adhesive, to the surface of the nzxt cooler to add space between my laptop and the cooler and to keep the laptop from slipping on the hard rubber surface of the nzxt cooler. And now I've noticed a half degree cooler and more circulation.
THE ONLY PROBLEM, is the edges are SHARP! So, I found if I used duct tape on the edges, that took care of the problem when I had it in my lap.
VERY QUIET operation even when the fan speed is adjusted to the highest setting. I just wish I could increase the speed of the fans for some INSANE air intake.
