KLIM Cyclone Laptop Cooling Pad with 5 Quiet Fans - New - Gaming Laptop Cooling Pad - Stable Laptop Stand with Fan - Compatible up to 17"- 5 Year Warranty - PC Mac PS5 PS4 Xbox One - Black White

Gaming laptops produce a lot of heat, i had a smaller one from another maker that where it DID drop down the thermal readings if the cpu, the keyboard would still get pretty toasty after an hour or two if continuous heavy load.THIS cooler however, i used for a 4 hour mac settings game continuously (i was on a steak and held in a bathroom break even), and not only did it keep cpu temps down, but so much cold air was pushed through it that it actually kept the topside of the keyboard to a mildly warm temp, about the same amount of heat you could feel from the surface of a wooden chair if you've been sitting in it for a while AND, silently, i might add. Anyone looking to keep their laptop cool, or just extend the life of the internal fans by having an outside unit do half if the work, this is worth every pennyPros-ThinThe mesh material doesn't impede airflow yet is sturdy for the priceThe fans are silent and are powerfulThe lighting is aesthetically pleasing without being overbearingCons-The surface CAN let laptops with weaker pads slide a little after a while, whether vibration from use or whatever, and the plastic plate thing that snaps in to keep laptops from sliding down while elevated seems like a cheap afterthought (would be better as a fold up hinged flap maybe?) and it's tall and thin, could get in the way of trackpads or make resting wrists uncomfortableThe cord that comes with it is craazzyyy long and awkward to stow in its retainer, which also would've been better as a box with a locking flap than a coil thing reminiscent if a boat tie off cleat.The usb inputs are both on the right side, which leaves the user stuffing the cord up underneath if using an adjacent mouse, would be better if there was one on each side to accommodate people with inputs only on the left, or those who just have their own preference. Or just go overkill and put one on each side and the back, and trim down the cable so that way nothing's in the way and you can still reach whatever port you want to use.The rubber pads at the end of its support legs could be better adhered, i ended up using some strong super glue and they haven't come off since thoughRandom nitpick-As someone who spends most of their time using their laptop while laying in bed, while the adjustable leg supports are awesome at holding their elevation, i would much rather have the support legs lock into one big u- shaped base and not two individual legs. I often would find myself having to spread MY legs slightly to support IT'S legs, and after a while it got kindof annoying. And if relaxing in underwear and relaxing for a bit before bed while doing light gaming, the gentleman's region would get a bit too chilled for my liking, with a solid u-shaped bar as a base, i could rest the back edge against my crossed legs and it still be sturdiness without sacrificing airflow OR my plumsWhere the dimmer switch effect of the lights indicating fan speeds and which fan zones are on IS neat, a bypass switch to turn the lights off alone would be nice just for the sake of preserving ambiance for movies, or to just limit the amount of light in the room.Overall- cost, construction materials and perfomance make this a REALLY sound choice

I have an HP Pavilion gaming 16 less than a month old. It's CPU is an i5 10300 H which is a 45 watt core, so in other words it can get hot. The HP model you can't under voltage so a fan is a must. The couple of days I've used this the results are good. Outside Temp is an important factor in keeping your laptop cooler. In moderate temps my CPU would run at idle at 50 to 55 C. Upon using this fan on mac for ten minutes my temp dropped to 41 C. That is a good drop. But now the important aspect gaming. A workload on your core will generate heat and sometimes fast. Before the fan I would get an occasional dip up in the nineties but not longer as the CPU did it's work. My more demanding games I play are Total War which are CPU monsters so to speak. Playing without the fans it played generally from 72 to 85C, which isn't overly alarming but occasional heat hikes up. With fan on I did have a 5 degree improvement in general. With an occasional spike up to 90 91C for a second as CPU did it's work in game. But I encountered no throttling. My lesser demanding games stayed well in the sixties playing. Overall I'm very satisfied with the product. My only complaint I would have preferred the USB on left since I game mouse on right, but it's easily adjusted on my desk for smooth play. Also the center stop for laptop to hold in place ( which is located in back to take off and use when unboxed) could have improved, the laptop can easily shift since the left and right corners don't have stoppers to prevent slippage. I'll Jerry rig something if it becomes a problem. But the most important aspect I wanted was respectable cooling. I feel I've gotten this.

So I'll start by saying that this is absolutely worth the cost. I paid 29 bucks, and I got my money's worth. Deducting one start because the listing explicitly stated that this version was designed for bigger laptops, and it's slightly smaller than the frame of my 17.3 thin bezel laptop. That wouldn't be an issue if it wasn't so sleek and slippery, but it is. It's made out of hard plastic, so unless you're using this on a flat surface (but honestly, even then), it'll slip and slide around. Thankfully, I had some of those felt adhesive floor protectors you stick to the bottoms of your furniture's legs so they don't scratch up your floors. I stuck one on each of the four sides, as far out as I could so they wouldn't restrict any of the fans' air flow, and now my laptop is sliding around a lot less. But that's definitely an issue. If the manufacturer is reading this, please try to solve that in future iterations. Even just a thin rubber lining around the edges, or include small rubber stickers for the customer to place where needed, but with how these are currently, I was pretty upset at how unstable the laptop felt sitting on it. Very satisfied now that I added my little home fix, because it really is a great unit. When it's resting on your lap, you feel the airflow coming out the sides, which is a lot more pleasant than feeling like your thighs are on fire after using your laptop for an hour. Has a cooling effect, while keeping your laptop significantly cooler, all while being surprisingly quiet.
