Zalman Notebook Cooler - Focused Airflow Mod

Zalman Notebook Cooler
----------------------
Focused Airflow Modification (Mod)

for ZM-NC1000 and ZM-NC2000

This is a video tutorial that I made really quick in Flash.

It shows an easy mod that you can do with your Zalman Notebook Cooler to get "Focused Airflow" (or compressed airflow) to specific locations.

Its best for gaming notebooks, since the GPU and CPU would get the greatest benefits from extra cooling.

will my 18"4 inch laptop fit on a cooler like that???

[gophn]

yes it would.

I have tested it on the fastest 18.4" gaming notebooks... by Clevo.

[HenkSpankK]

can't you just remove the bottom plate and put it on the notebook cooler ?

[gophn]

the design of the notebook cooler wont allow that... I dismantled it the first day I got it to check it out.

its a very proprietary design that makes it efficient if the cooler is not taken apart.

[taintedsoul17]

great...except for the fact that you're pushing focused air into the fans that are trying to push air out...more than likely making it harder to exhaust the air...

[gophn]

you are mistaken. 99% of notebook on the market intake air from the bottom and exhausts the hot air on the back/sides.

[Supertasticaquatics]

only problem, the point of the metal bottom is for heat conduction. Cardboard is not a good heat conductor lol

[iHatePole]

Why not you just open all the cover below and just put the computer on the fan?

[lonkow]

nonsense - you are killing the fan.... 

[Chained2Alice]

hahah, thanks for this =)

@underwatercookie its like.. ice cap zone from Sonic 3, only its an OC Remix edition, you can get it off their website.. but they'll probably have like 4 versions of it

[GuildofLame]

lol, nice OC Remix version of a Sonic 3 song for the background music ;)

[underwatercookie]

What song is this? XD

I have ZM-NC2000 and undervolting decreased my temperature more than Zalman. This mod depends on notebook, but air cools down whole notebook, so it is not just about getting air into vents. Also it is better to turn it around so front would be in back, since most notebooks are overheating in back and air vents are there as well.

my dell inspiron 1525 regulerly hits 80s C and the shuts down, the fans are on the bottom so i cant keep it on aything flat, you think this thing will help?
