Laptop cooling
 
I was just wondering where I could pick up the best bang for the buck laptop cooling pad. Seems like my graphics card is always overheating.

Thanks

How would you go about reapplying thermal paste? I don't know much about laptops :S Lol

Was gonna clean fan later on today.

You can check crystal mall for some cooling pads, ncix has quite a bit too. You're probably looking at $20+ for a decent one. Just blow some air through the intake to get the dust out, forget the thermal paste if you've never done it before. Laptops are a pain to work with.

^ good way to ruin your fan. always, always hold your fans still when blowing air.
