Hey everyone my mom is on the market for buying a laptop cooler. We figure get it off newegg since I wil be buying a hard drive from them and there pretty much cheapest on prices I've seen. Her laptop is a Dell Inspiron 9300 17" wide screen. What would a good cooler be that isn't as well braking the bank?

I have absolutely no experience with laptop coolers, although i am a FAN of NEW EGG, Have been buying hardware there for the last 8 years. The great part about new egg are the customer write ups/reviews on each item. So with that and suggestions that others post I am sure you will get your Mom The best Laptop cooler out there. When I am comparing hardware on new egg ( i created an account) all the items I like I send them to my wish list that I made for the item. Then I go through the wish list and disqualify till I get to the winner.

I have that cooler and highly recommend it. Keeps my gaming laptop very cool whereas before it would belch out the heat and start locking up during intensive gaming. Not very expensive either.

Just confirm the fans aren't anywhere near your main main on the laptop. Most coolers pull air away from the laptop. Most fans on laptops pull air towards them... Both running together could cause the laptop to run hotter/overheat.

I owned the cheap Belkin one. It broke within a week or so. This site recommends it, but I think it was awful!
