Technology moves fast, and this is especially so with computer hardware. We have seen the super fast processors, memory and graphics move from desktop to notebook in a short space of time and this has meant that cooling manufacturers have had to develop new innovations to counter the excessive heat that these notebooks produce.

It’s quite simple; components inside a notebook are very tightly seated together and because of this they generate heat quicker than the conventional computer would. This reaction can cause system lock-ups, crashes and even hardware failure. The faster the hardware the more heat generated, so gaming notebooks in particular will list highly as a victim of such weaknesses.



To combat this, Antec have developed the Notebook Cooler 200 which utilizes a huge Antec Big Boy 200mm LED fan.

Antec have the following to say about the Notebook Cooler 200:

“Today's premium notebooks can play many of the most demanding games but that performance comes at a great cost: most notebooks provide inadequate cooling, and run a huge danger of overheating. Antec's Notebook Cooler 200 offers gamers the perfect solution, a robust and stylish cooler for even the most cutting-edge notebook.”
