    Default Getting a new fan/cooling system

    Okay, so my 3 year old computer fans are finally starting to show their age and can't keep my computer cool during this warm weather which causes the computer to crash, so i was wondering if anyone could recommend a cheap fan/coolant system that would do the job.

    Thanks.

    I don't know about the internal fans, but I purchased a Targus cool-desk for my laptop, and it really has helped out. It looks like a hot plate but has two fans and cooling fins.

    Very nice.

    It all depends on your tolerance for noise. I have 5 case fans and am fine with it, but some people want only a couple. Also how many 80mm fan hardpoints does your computer have? Does it have any 120mm hardpoints? Is it only case fans?
