I tested one of Amazon's best rated "laptop cooling pads"… (Llano)

About a decade ago my hot Toshiba laptop decided to overheat and switch off for the last time, despite it sitting atop a so-called "cooling pad".
Ever since then I've been skeptical of any product that claims it can drastically reduce temperatures, so when Llano offered to send over their absolute unit of a cooling pad for review, I just had to try it...

I can see why this is a highly effective design. It creates a seal around the edge of the laptop and crams air through the vents. The only reason this wouldn't work is if the laptop had a lifting rear hinge and the foam couldn't make a complete seal.

[@Jakiyyyyy]

That's how it work. Without the foam seal, it won't be effective because of leaked and wasted potential. The wind would spill over anywhere but not to the laptop where it supposed to go.

[@supergeekjay]

That foam looks tacky. You can already see on the bottom right corner where it's damaged 🤣 Thick industrial rubber, like the stuff on the soles of workboots, would have been better at this price point,

[@daftbence]

Entirely depends on the lappy, mine gets cooler just by the tilt of the cooling pad, with the fans off. In contrast, a severly heatsoaked, undercooled lappy will only be cooled by a monstrosity like this or maybe not even by this lol

[@Daniel-ru8je]

Having your laptop on a stand with holes is already much better thank keeping it against the desk with no room to breathe. No wonder a pair of good fans makes it even better. The thing is that the majority of laptop cooling pads break very quickly

[@Marc83Aus]

Most pads provide pretty much the same amount of cooling as just propping the back end of the laptop up on something. But it really depends on how the laptops cooling is designed. A fan that seals well enough to shove large volumes of air right into the case would certainly provide significant cooling.

[@fjjwfp7819]

There are a few factors. For one, these cooling pads assist the original fans in the laptop in pushing air into the bottom of the laptop, creating a higher pressure region and makes the original cooling system more effective. However, if your thermal paste is dried up, or your internal fans and heatsink are covered in dust, a laptop cooler like this is unlikely to help since it only can assist the original cooler and can't really do much to cool the laptop by itself. I do wonder however if using the laptop on this stand with a filtered input makes it better in terms of dust compared to regular unfiltered input on the laptop itself.

[@bluej511]

Much much better design than the usual crappy laptop coolers that just has cheap fans on the bottom. Although it seems incredibly expensive.

I have an older "non-crappy" Laptop Cooler which is a Aluminium Pad with two 120mm fans in it. Which have a high and low setting. On low they are as loud as a laptop and on high to loud. Low Setting drops the temperature about 5-10°C. Putting a Laptop on this Wedge for 2°C. I never use high. The biggest Problem with it is: I can't buy a new one. The Company is no longer on the market. And the heavy Aluminium Design is replaced by crappy ones in the market. Plastik needs to be thicker, which kills the advantage and most Fans are crappier then the old Revoltec fans at this pricepoint.

[@Zatchillac]

I've had junky $10 cooling pads that actually made a reasonable difference in temps (10-15°) but it also depended on the laptop itself. If the laptop has slots on the bottom side for cooling it will make a difference but with a laptop that's completely flat and covered underneath it would do nothing

[@_Jester_]

And he mentioned that.

[@MuhlisErtugrul]

This is probably what my (older) laptop should have. My i5-8250U and MX150 equipped laptop gets so hot when playing games (95C or higher) and even my laptop cooler pad struggle to take the temps down. Wish I could test it and release the results. Nice video btw, thanks!

[@jakeonater99]

My old gaming laptop had a habit of overheating. Being a broke teenager and then uni student, I used a cooling rack (like the one you'd use in the kitchen) as a cheap DIY solution. It worked pretty well, dropped the temps by about 10C and stopped it from thermal throttling (although it was still pushing 90C on the CPU)

[@DisTurbedSimulations]

[@IdunRedstone]

Main reason this seems to work so well is because the foam creates seal around bottom so the fan is properly acting as a fan for the laptop inside instead of throwing most of air out the sides before it gets into the laptop. Costs a shit ton for a cooling pad with a foam rectangle on top tho they are making bank lol.

[@leangxd]

[@dadgamer6717]

Nice one! I found anything that just lifts the laptop works well as then it can get fresh air in. Nice to see how it can boost performance if temp is throttling the cpu or GPU too.

[@PcVgLife]

My wife has a Dell with XE graphics. Got her a cooling pad and it helped a lot but it was mainly due to the fans no longer being choked by the sofa cushions. 😂

[@somebody700]

I too was skeptical about these fans because the cheap ones only act as a placebo while doing nothing to reduce temps. But I recently tried the IETS GT500 and it actually works really well. The laptop used to spike to 90c when a heavy gaming load was on it, but since using the fan the temps were always down in mid 70s, with some random momentary spikes up to 90 but those are very short. Those new designs are well made because they isolate the intake of air to the laptop and therefore ensure the flow is significantly increased.

[@sighansen3055]

great work! Would love to see if there are any fps differences if you are going to test another one:)

[@KiegKillsReality]

They definitely work! I was on a laptop for a while that always throttled the GPU and the CPU as they would always hit hit their max temps. I bought one of those that threw air right into the fans and it helped quite a lot! It actually kept both the CPU and GPU from throttling and gave me a nice bump in performance! The only downside was that it was pretty loud. Worth it though in my opinion.

If you haven't tried before, I suggest you try a vacuum cooler too, it works at least for me. My laptop, an ASUS X550IU kept throttling down whenever I play games, the GPU clocked down to 300 MHz per MSI Afterburner without any cooling. With a vacuum cooler, it did also throttled but only came down to 600-700 MHz (from 1.2 GHz iirc). And its cheaper too.

[@GraveUypo]

I mean the numbers speak for themselves. Looking at it as an engineer I already knew by the design that it would very likely do something but my gosh I didn’t expect it to do that much! That kind of performance perfectly justifies the price.

His unit was pretty powerful for the time, if I remember correctly it was a Samsung Aura model with a 9600M GT. I dont think the cooler ever did anything meaningful cooling wise, but I still remember how bulky it looked.

[@MrBeardedninja]

Interesting! Did you get higher clocks on the GPU/CPU with the cooler temps?

[@RandomGaminginHD]

Not in this case but I bet you would with an even hotter and throttling machine

[@MsMarco6]

Generally speaking the clocks on a gaming laptop are a consequence of the harsh power limit rather than thermals. In my experience you shouldn't expect much thermal throttling with modern gaming laptops unless they're poorly built or caked in dust. That being said Ultrabooks can thermally throttle, it a design feature from devices such as the Macbook air, which are designed more like smartphones. But unfortunately many of those laptops lack the large bottom vents needed for a device like this to be effective. It's a real shame, as awesome as this product is there just aren't too many modern laptops that'd truly benefit from it. The device's that need it can't use it and the devices that can use it usually run well within their thermal limits (90°+ temps are acceptable for gaming laptops its 100°+ where you need to start worrying.). I think most people considering this are either paranoid about the standard running temps of gaming laptops or would be better served by simply cleaning the inside of their laptop.

[@Drebin2293]

I've had the same cooler master x slim cooling pad now for about a decade. Works great. The thing about a cooling pad is that it has to pull air from the bottom and blow up. Too many pads did the opposite when I was looking at them years ago. It was more about having something that I could put it on and use it in bed at the time as well. I don't use it that often nowadays since I purchased a small saiji bed desk, but when I want to game on the go, it does keep my laptop from getting too loud.

I would have really like to have seen performance metrics along side the temps. Lowering temps usually also increases performance and while performance improvements should be different depending on the laptop and their tdp, it can show one of the most important reasons to get one of these coolers.

[@biglevian]

I'd like a comparison to just laying it vents up (maybe adding a little usb fan for 5 bucks😅)

[@ctc5]

In my experience with the (much cheaper) TeckNet cooling pad, most of the benefit came from the extra clearance it created between the laptop and the surface it's placed upon. Having the fans running or not makes little difference. If your laptop regularly overheats, you probably need to clean the air system. To do that, you need to either suck air through the laptop's air intake, or blow through the laptop's air exhaust; essentially reversing the usual air flow direction. This should result in lots of crud coming out of the laptop and it running much cooler afterwards.

[@Rushil69420]

There’s a huge market for laptops in parts of the world that are so hot that even ambient/room temps are too high to run without an issue. This and other cooling pads are really best suited for those environments.

[@REDSIX]

Are you able to reverse the fans in case you have bottom exhaust laptop?

[@drigondii]

This does what I've always insisted laptop coolers should do: it creates positive pressure instead of just blowing air against the chassis.

[@Super-Tomcat]

I think the problem is the height. I would find it uncomfortable to have my hand, wrist, and arm at an extreme upward angle while typing. Then you have your other hand and arm at a lower position awkwardly beside it while using a mouse. Therefore, this cooling solution would be a no-go for me. In the alternative, I could only see it being useful for me as a cooling solution while using my laptop connected to an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Thanks for bringing this cooler to our attention.

[@TylerBonenfant]

I remember years ago running iracing on a laptop that had no business running it, using an actual fan on its highest setting with books and cardboard to blow air directly under and into it so it would stop overheating lol

[@Diy_Papi]

What was the setting of the laptop fans during testing?

[@MegaHellstrike]

That's a really nice looking hot plate, RGinHD!

[@SssAwki]

It doesn’t damage the fan inside the laptop? Like make the other fan go other way?

I just got this yesterday after waiting for almost 3 weeks to get it from Amazon. Totally worth the wait. I also have a Gigabyte laptop. I have the G5 KF5 version with a i7-12650h and a 4060. The CPU temps will hit 100℃ when I play fortnite and throttle but with this cooler at 1000 RPM, it dropped down to around 85℃ and rarely going into the 90's.

How does it work tho.. does it just blow wind or does it actually cools the air intake then blow? Coz my country is hot yet humid place.

Let me introduce you to me budget laptop cooling set up. So, you get two bottle caps of the same vertical size and put them on the back rubber legs. In my case helps cool enough for it not to throttle at full load. PS the higher the lift up the better the results.

Aw, I noticed a PS3 Super Slim in the background, did the old FAT model PS3 that you used to have die?

I remember i had a cooling pad for my old laptop years ago. It'd get to 100c playing Dota 2 and shut off, that cooling pad and removing the drive bay door were just barely enough to stop it doing that XD
