Does the laptop cooler suck air out of the laptop or blow air into it?

I believe it sucks cool air up from underneath the cooling pad and forces that cool air into the bottom exhaust vents of the laptop thus circulating the air throughout the insides of the laptop cooling them down so well that the air that comes out of my laptop's side exhaust vent comes out cool instead of hot or even warm. For a laptop cooling pad to effectively cool down a laptop using suction that cooling pad would would generate a lot of noise and it would probably need a separate power source because piggybacking off of your laptop would just drain it's very fast. This is an amazing cooling pad it is virtually silent, well made, very comfortable to have resting on your lap for long periods of time, it is extremely effective and very well priced. I hope I helped you with your question. Feel free to ask me more if you would like.

She's a blower but it's almost as if there's a layer of moving air between it and the laptop. Stays quite cool though, only gets warm under heavy load but even then the heat is acceptable. The one drawback which doesn't affect me is that it doesn't seem like it would be very suitable to sit in your lap, otherwise it's excellent. I'm quite pleased with mine.

It blows/pulls air off of the bottom of your laptop, thereby removing heat from the bottom. It works well if your laptop fan exhausts out the back. You'll feel it on your legs if you're wearing shorts.

Blows into it, since there is no way to pull air through the laptop keyboard. It has been going full time since last year, because I never shut off my laptop, until I do a restart to install updates.

Blows air up towards the notebook to keep it cool. Very, very good product! 5 stars!!

it take the laptop cool, but there is no fan, so is just the material used to make this who take cool, sorry for my bad english

you need a hard surface for any laptop. If you use a laptop cooler you also need a hard surface. Use a laptray or buy a laptop tray from Wal-Mart or Amazon. Laptop cooling relies on air moving under it. If it is on a bed or anything soft it will block the vents and over heat. I have used this cooler for over two years and it works well if used correctly.

You can use it either way. For me personally I have the front case fan blowing air in. The rear case fan blowing out. Two top fans blowing out and two side fans blowing in. My CPU Temp is at 25 Celsius at no load.

Naturally you want to keep air flow circulating through the vents, if you're laptop vent is towards the bottom of your laptop I'd say that would be ideal for a more centered point of air flow instead of half's of two fans. If you can center it go for it, if not the difference of air flow is minor.

Blows air up, under laptop. And it is quite, u will not even know it's there

Hello and thank you for your question. The laptop pad blows air "towards" your unit. The clutes/slots help draw the radiant heat from the laptop and the two, albeit quiet motors, blow cool air from underneath the pad and towards the laptop's base. It like a convection heat dispersal system, like in your house. The vents along the soffit help the roof vents on top of the roof draw cool, outside air and the hot heat rises to the top and out the vent on the roof. I hope this helps.Cheers!!

Chances are it pushes less air than you're default fan, at least it did for me . I was debating between a new card or new fan, i should have chosen a new card because I've had to buy one anyways

There are two small fans (80mm) on the lower back part of the case that can be configured to blow air to or from the hard disk trays. In my setup I have installed two Noctuas NF-R8 redux-1200 and all my 4 HD's runs cool and quiet.

It will blow cool air to the bottom of the system (system should have some sort of "intake" vent somewhere on the bottom - side vents would be exhaust/air blowing out) even if it doesn't have a vent on the bottom, the cooler pad should help cool the battery pack and the external housing for the hard drive (bringing down the temperature of the system). Hope this helps.

It pushes air directly onto the card through the heatsink and heat pipes. There is no reason to exhaust the air. Your case should exhaust the air that is circulating.

i took the laptop off and found that the air blew all around like a fan. Hope that helps.

You can mount this fan either way. Look for the molded arrow on the side of the fan to identify airflow direction. Its most efficient when it pulls air through the computer chassis and exhausts it out the back. If you plan to mount it to the side of your chassis to cool your CPU you'll want to bring cool air in from the outside.

The case is designed for air to easily flow through it. I recommend you point the fan to send hot air out, so that cooler air will be drawn across the case.

yes. I got it for my son. he loves it. Keeps the laptop cooled off so it doesn't overheat.

negative. well. perhaps if you turn all the so that they blow air into the case it would be a positive pressure. I run the fans on the front pulling in air and the top fan and back fan so that they force the air out and my power supply sucks air in from the base and out the back independent of the case ventilation.I have two fans I planned on adding to the bottom forcing air into the case.at this point the motherboard temp cpu and memory are staying cool. I have have sabertooth mb that has thermal controls for the fan.

The fan is a puller / pulls air thru the cooler. If you create even a small box frame to sit between the fan and the cooler, you dramatically increase the cooling efficiency of this small cooler. The box should be sealed against the cooler and fan so it does not draw air from other than the cooler. Don't know why the guys at B&M; don't do that.
