as the title says. ive got a 15.4 wide laptop (z71v) and it gets a little too toasty for comfort when i play some heavy games for hours on end. i cant leave it on the table anymore because its feet are missing and the fans dont get enough air- and i cant leave it on my leg because it burns. its the graphics chip thats too hot.
my FPS quickly deteriorates through the first 5 mins of the game im currently playing, ive decided the gpu is overheating and redrawing scenes.
my friend just picked up a targus chiller for his 17" wide, it looked like it might fit mine but costs $30, even on newegg. id have to be sure it would be perfect before dropping that much on one.
so- does anyone know of a chiller that is well sized to fit a 15.4 laptop that wont break the bank? (wont take much to break it right now ;) )
any gaming i do will be off AC, so if it requires a seperate AC adapter i can deal with that.
