Question: Is this thing good for gaming?
Document: There are design flaws:1) The USB cord is on the left side. I do not have a left or rear usb port. I turned it around (cord on right) and it works, but the vents are in the wrong spot.2) The bottom has for projecting bumps (legs) that are very unconformable on the lap. They poke into your leg.The only thing good about the design is it is indeed thin.
I use this to cool my PS3. While I've only had it for a few days, I'm impressed so far. The fans are super-quiet, which was my primary concern. I am sure there are models out there that might keep the machine cooler--this one does the trick but I notice the PS3 still heats up after several hours of gaming--but it was well worth the price.
I have an Asus  I7 gaming laptop. this puppy gets warm with all the gaming i do.And this "laptop cooler" did NOTHING in fact it made the laptop hotter because the fan was barely strong enough to be felt and the fabric like material held in the heat.I tossed it back in it's box after 5 minutes. Do not buy this if you have a laptop that runs really warm.
One thing I do like is that it is super comfortable. I don't hardly notice it is there until it starts to get warm. My advice is to consider other models. Targus is a great brand, but for some reason this model just isn't up to par.
Looked for a cooling pad to keep an SLI laptop cool, the AWE79US had some decent reviews so I wen't ahead and purchased.Here are my results after gaming for one hour on each test.No Cooling Pad:Stock:GPU1:84CGPU2:89CCPU:83COverclocked:GPU1:91CGPU2:98CCPU:81CWith Cooling Pad:Stock:GPU1:84CGPU2:88CCPU:81COverclocked:GPU1: 90CGPU2:97CCPU:84C
Cools a macbook well enough and while there is the fan noise it never sounds like a jet engine. Warning though, if you have a very hot laptop due to being a gaming rig or something that is very processor heavy this probably isn't the pad for you. My laptop is for graphic design work or web design. It builds up heat but not in massive amounts due to running 60 frames of gibs a millisecond. Consider the performance demands of your rig.
Just received it, it works, and is very quiet. For those of you that had an older desktop, the noise level is about the same as those fans. Now, the 15.6 inch part is the thing that I am not too sure about. I have a 15.4 Inch Macbook and it is considerably larger than the mat...had I been in the market for a "lap-desk" then I would have sent this back.
As others say a bit noisy but so was my laptop which had taken a few falls due to my having epilepsy. Thus fan is compromised. Fan compensates better than a chill mat I bought several years ago but the great thing is the grip area which secures laptop further and has prevented laptop from falling while I have a seizure
We have a Playstation 3 that gets a lot of usage. Between games and movies, that thing runs its little hiney off. It gets hot. More especially because we live in a VERY hot and humid area. So, we use this awesome chill mat right underneath it to make sure that it is getting plenty of air. It was freezing up a lot before we got this mat, and now, it has really gotten back on its game. I am very pleased with the product!
If it wasn't the cat, well, I'd give it a 2 star rating. This thing helped me for six months to ensure my laptop kept running while I used it extensively to play Civ V for eight hours at a time without overheating (though it did still get very hot). It served pretty well as a platform to raise my laptop off of a flat surface, with a gentle zephyr every hour or so.You get what you pay for.
Answer: It wasnt as strong of a fan as i expected, but it makes it so skyrim doesnt crash my computer, so it still is pretty good for gaming.
