Do Laptop Cooling Pads Work? WATCH THIS BEFORE YOU BUY! (2025)

Overheating is the bane of any laptop user's existence, and one solution to this problem is to use a laptop cooling pad. The question is, do they actually work?

If you plan on getting a laptop cooling pad, there aren't many better than the KLIM Turbofrost.

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for watching 😁.

After speaking with the team at KLIM, I've been informed that they're working on correcting the Amazon listing to accurately the maximum output (4, 000 RPM).

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns! 🫡

Made my own cooling pad. Two Arctic cooling P12 MAX fans for 22€, one motor speed controller from aliexpress for 2, 50 € and a wooden box for 8€, had a power adaptor at home, foam from some packaging. A little bit of work and now I have a nice piece of furniture that works as an excellent cooling pad. An ASUS ROG Strix G16 with an i9 13980HX RTX4080 at somewhere around 20% RPM holds at 70-75°C GPU/CPU under full load. Sa great cooling pad for around 30€.

I got this pad. It works well with a Legion 7i Pro Gen 8. Don't even need 4000rpm, I found the sweet spot to be between 2000-3000 for optimal cooling vs noise. The downside to these foam style pads is when this pad is off your laptop with be hotter than normal since it's being smothered by the foam seal.

I have a 5 year old ASUS GL 702VSK Gaming Laptop. It runs 16 hours a day. Fan runs Full tilt always on. Question is/would be advisable mohave the Thermal Paste re done. Temps depending on room temp run 32C to 60C just on the web or streaming. Rendering with DaVinci Resolve I've seen CPU/GPU 97C. I DON"T GAME. It's Clean in side.

Is this one better than the dirty one you reviewed a year ago

The cooling also depends on which laptop you’re cooling

so to summarize, i had this laptop IETs GT500 cooling pad for like years now, and i barely had any air coming out. even though i did feel it, once the dust was blown out, even though the dust filter WAS in there there was so much dust build up that i had to use compressed air. and that did the trick. i also do have 3 vents the cooler booster and the cooling pad all at max out settings. and i dont care about noise. its like a white noise for me. people has different opinion so i dont mind that. for me, i dont care the iets cooling pad is still kicking butt. and its making the temps at like 63 degrees C which is plenty cool. iets has 5000 RPM and cools down a bit faster. just wanting to let you know about that. my laptop does get 95 degrees, however when it hits that i max out everything and to my surprise it slightly DOES drop the temperature to 85 degrees on CPU between 85 - 90. its still hot though. i try to keep my laptop cool though. i am thinking of getting a LLano cooling pad though. yea, its a 3200 RPM drop. im probably going to be opting out for that maybe depends if this cooling pad craps the bed to say the honest truth.

🥶 hey I just gotta ask.But what do you use to get the exact temperatures on both cpu and gpu i'm trying to do a test on my own using an 11 yo laptop an MSI GE70 20E with a gtx 765m gpu had minimal vents

[VikingRuls]

🥶 You missed the most important feature. Throttling. If the laptop isn't, there's no performance gain to get (they practically always are)
GPU: In your game test the GPU clock jumped up 3%. In MSI the GPU was power-limited, but good way of showing the cooling capability. All in, it does seem to perform better
CPU no video data, but the temperatures are definitely indicating massive throttling
You could use a program like GPU-Z to monitor throttling realtime on both, in a small frame. HWinfo can also do it ;)

what is the best budget laptop cooler under 50 dollars (in europe)

[ProjectPewgf]

I got this and Illano V10 (as its better then V13 older model from last year). Just going to keep both and then then later on sell the one giving me stutters because the testing these two pads will take me at least a few months so i won't be abe to return it back to Amazon. (Klim is so much quiter and usb powered upto 3300 RPM, also with Klim you can hold power button for couple of seconds to switch bottom or middle fan whilst on USB power & Illano is only mains powered) decisions decisions along with lots of testing.

I have a llano v2 cooler, on my ryzen 9 4070 laptop it decrease the temperature 20 degrees witout undervoltting, jndervolt i play with 60-65 degrees in cpu and gpu

[thomasa.]

If you reduce the cpu power consumption of your laptop to like 30-40 Watts, which is enough for gaming, it gets a lot cooler without the need of a cooling pad.

smartphones have a noise meter (with the appropriate free app), fyi
