Hi,
Try cooler master. The one with 2 cooler fans whereby you can adjust the position. I bought from Challenger. Quite good for low budget user. (Model : Notepal u2 plus)

Previously have bought the cheaper $10-$12 cooler from sls; but it's not lasting. Broke down after one month. Bought twice and twice broke down and stop working.

Better to buy the branded one

Agree. The Cooler master one is good.

instead of a laptop cooler, just try propping it up abit. i put a stack of poker cards behind my lenovo y520 and the temps drop 10-15 degrees under heavy load.

most laptops are very starved for air with their tiny rubber feets.

Depends. Ultimately i found just propping the laptop up or buy a dedicated laptop stand thats ALOT cheaper worked the same.

The 60 bucks i spend on a HAVIT laptop cooler didnt do crap for the temps compared to just propping the laptop up on my own.

My advice would be to avoid cooler reviews online. In my experience coolers have almost never worked, or are not worth the benefits over just propping it up. If your laptop is new, its own cooling system is good enough.

Coolers are meant for older laptops with shitty cooling systems that need help.

A non faulty laptop should not need a cooler. If your laptop overheats without a cooler it could be that the vents are clogged and need to be cleaned.

any reason you need to cool your router? sure some routers do run quite warm but they are designed that way
