Optimus V 15"6 Cooling Pads Query

[SuperMeggido]

I am buying an Optimus V 15"6 soon (finally , although might just want to wait for that fan fix to come through) and want to buy a cooling pad to go with it. I am deciding between the NotePal U2/U3, the Xigmatek Sheild D212 and the Zalman ZM-NC3500. Between the NotePal U2 and U3, I am not sure if the U2 will deliver enough cooling/is big enough, but not sure how much bigger the U3 is compared to the laptop (too big?). Alternatively the two others have big fans, but I am not sure which is best; Gaint fan or single fans concentrating on the hot areas? Also if the cooling pad is portable/slim design that would be a bonus, but is not a priority. Suggestions and advice welcome especially from Optimus V 15"6 owners

Thanks in advance :tank:

The fan issues I dont think its loud I belive its just normal for Optimus V coz of the graphic card. I recived mine on 20th Aug.
I have been playing Skyrim, PS2, LOL, Crysis with out using cooler still laptop stays cool only near graphic card area its warm after 10hrs+ play.


For the laptop cooler I am not so sure so its up to you.

Not sure if you have already bought a cooler but the U2 would be too small to properly cool a 15.6 (i know its supposed to be rated to a 17" laptop) The U3 would work well and the ability to move the fans around is helpful.

Yeah I actually got the U3 in the end, there was a review by acffordyce973 in the show off section and I noticed in one of his pictures there was the Optimus V 15''6 on top of a U3 Notepal, and I saw the holes roughly stopped where the laptop did and realised the U2 would be too small especially for the top left corner ventilation vent. I have it at the moment its great, it is quite big but very lightweight and sturdy so you can take it with you if you would need too.
