Title: Laptop cooler?
Post by: Awful on Sun, 25 March 2012, 22:08:25

My lady's laptop just got so hot it cut itself off. I think I could cook an egg on it. Can anyone recommend me a decent cooler? We've gotten two that burnt up after about a month, but they were cheep crappy ones. Thanks ahead of time for the suggestions :)

How long have you had it?
Opening it up and cleaning it would be my first move.
