Cooler Master Notepal X2 Notebook Cooler
When the Cooler Master Notepal X2 Notebook Cooler was created it seems as though
the designers wanted something that had optimal comfort, efficient functions and a unique silent running.
Yes, the Cooler Master company not only creates cases and desktop components but also has ventured into the world of laptop cooling as well.
Modeled after the Cooler Master Notepal X1 the new upgraded Notepal X2 is an improvement on an already successful design. Much like its predecessor this notebook cooling pad has a unique body almost in the shape of an 'X' but more closer to an `H shape. Both shape styles do actually contribute to cooling performance so the unusual design wasn't just for aesthetic purposes.
The shape has been purposely designed to enhance the cooling performance
and certainly alters the air flow patterns. While using the Cooler Master Notepal X2 you will notice large amounts of air flowing from the sides of the laptop/notepad. As most of the heat originates at the back of a laptop/notebook most cooling systems are usually located in one of the back corners. With the `X shape there is room for air to circumvent the corners where cooling is most critical.
A laptop CPU can generate high temperatures and the internal cooling system of any laptop/notebook is never really enough to dissipate the trapped heat inside. Enter the Notepal X2 which will help cool any notebook down by taking air from a bottom intake with its fan.
The cooler pad centralized fan is 140mm in dimension and has 11 curved blades providing great volumes of air. The new larger dimension is an upgrade from the 120mm fan used in the NotePal X1.
The fan can be toggled on and off and you will find that it is pretty quiet, (depending on whether you are in a library or an airport!), and even on high speed is fairly acceptable. If things do get a little loud you do have the option of lowering the RPM by turning the RPM knob. It can be adjusted from 700 to 1400 RPM.
The construction and materials, (plastic and metal mesh), of the Logitech X2 seem to offer more of an extremely light notebook cooler rather than a very durable unit. How you look at it depends on what area is more important to you. Do you want a light weight unit at the expense of durability?
If you travel around a lot and take the Cooler Master Notepal X2 with you then take into consideration that it wouldn't take much of hit to put a dent in the front metal mesh of the unit. Also the plastic body seems a little soft and rigid and may be prone to cracking.
On the other hand, the profile is sleek without any protuberances making it easy to pack away safely or carry by your side.
The metal grating itself does more than just allow air to slip through. It does in fact act as a radiator fin, the thinner the better, and conducts heat to the edges where it can be cooled.
As additional little features that can make a huge difference to the user the Cooler Master Notepal X2 Cooler has two plastic/rubber feet at the back that flip out to change its working angle of the. The large rubber feet provided excellent traction. Now you can move around without the fear of your laptop sliding off.
There is a subtle, subdued LED lighting system that stays on throughout making the notebook cooler pad noticeable even in bright conditions. A very good feature for those who like to work on the floor or on a couch. You never know who might come along and accidently kick the unit!
