Cons: Flies don't die on the laptop anymore...
Pros: Very efficient cooling, not noisy at all, USB powered, cool design Comment:
I bought this notebook cooler to cool down a Compaq Presario laptop that kills flies daring to land on it (really). That laptop had some very hot GPU chipset temperature (85 to 100 celcius when watching videos...) that would sometimes makes its solder parts melt and disconnect from the motherboard due to a very bad heatsink, forcing me to reflow the chip. With this cooler, the GPU temperature dropped to around 65-75 celcius when watching videos, never expected that! |

Pros: Super coolerLightweightSilent Comment:
I bought this to keep a dual core Dell Vostro from burning up and to also be able to comfortably keep the computer on my lap. This device may have succeeded in both areas. (only time will tell whether it saves the Dell) I have Real Temp installed so I can watch the temperature. Without the Zalman, just surfing the web the laptop goes over 50C very quickly. Turn the Zalman on and the temps stay in the mid 30's. The unit handles the 15.5" Dell perfectly and there's no sliding around as the rubber strips that the laptop sits on holds it firm. The base of the unit is comfortable sitting on your lap and keeps the heat away from your legs. It's silent, I can't hear it running at all. I can't imagine using a laptop without one of these coolers again. A great product. |

Cons:
maybe a bit loud but honestly not a big deal
Pros: Stylish, great performance, comfortable Comment:
Goes very well with my friend's black matte laptop I bought it for as a gift. The performance is excellent, and his laptop has not overheated once since starting to use the cooler. Zalman makes excellent laptop coolers. |

Pros: Looks, build quality Comment:
The build quality is solid and definitely does the job well. Bought this for a Gateway notebook with dedicated graphic card, the notebook use to overheat and shut down a lot. Problem solved now. |

Pros: -Keeps laptop nice and cool-Not too pricey-Looks nice Comment:
I bought this to use with my Dell Studio 15 and it works wonders for keeping it cool. It sucks air from underneath and pushes it through the laptop. Keep my Dell a good 10 degrees cooler. It also looks pretty good. Definitely worth buying. |

Cons:
A little noisier than laptop fan at idle at half to full speed
Pros: Good coolingNice looksQuieter than laptop fan at load Comment:
Picked this up for my wife's laptop when I noticed core temperatures in the 80 - 90 region under max load, and chipset temps in the 90 - 100 region!! (ambient temps are around 25 - 30).Anyways with this cooler I'm getting between 5 - 10 degrees improvement at idle and load.Reccomended!! |

Cons:
Could be small for a 17" laptop.
Pros: Good cooling.Quiet. Comment:
I had a max GPU temp of 80 degrees Celsius, and the CPU stayed around 60 degrees on my MSI GX640-260US. The Zalman ZM-NC1500B drops the max GPU temp to ~68 degrees max.The feet of my GX640-260US sit fine on the stand, however the edges of the laptop hang over the sides of the cooler. I'm not sure a 17" laptop would sit well on this model...but perhaps MSI's laptops are wider than the norm. This review was modfied by poster @ 07-05-10 02:39 PM |
