Self made m1330 cooler

Hi guys, I read this guide about creating your own cooling system for your lappy : http://www.tacticalgamer.com/hardware-software-discussion/91613-110cfm-laptop-cooler.html#post709385. I decided to give it a try..


First I read abou the air intake for the m1330, and then made a drawing of how this cooler would look like.


Got all the items I needed:



Then after some work I got this result:





Keep in mind that this is only a prototype, the finished product will be stylish (I hope)

What I did different:

- added foam for maximum fit (The air intake on the m1330 is not smooth)

- used a fan with filter, minimize dust!

- used smaller pipes, used 50 mm instead of 70 mm



However I am at my girlfriends house so I don't have all the equipment I would like. So when I get home I will fool around with some "plexi-glas" (Don't know the english word, see through plastic plates). I'll make a plexi glas platform for my notebook to rest on.

Will post pictures when finished.


Temperatures

It was a huge difference! I have not finished monitoring but I have some readings of the GPU (8400m gs dd3 128mb:

Without cooling: oc 500/1000/750 peak temperature 96 degreese, never went below 85. 3dmark06 result: 1819

With cooling: oc 500/1000/750 peak temperature 84 degrees, most of the time it stayed at 70 degrees. 3dmark06 score: 1826/1865

Best regards Andreas, please comment!

 

A for effort. Seems a little extreme to me, but I don't own that model so hay, have fun with it.

 

Now for the true test:

Try bringing your cooler onto a plane.

 

HAHA word! No, it's just so I can play some bf2 or cod4 when I'm at my girlfriends house. When I'm home I play at my xbox..

But this shows how oc/capable the 8400m gs is. I just got 1911 in 3dmark06!

And when I'm finished with this cooling station it will keep my temps down when I'm working on my notebook, which I think is good for the components.

little extreme for m1330 but good job nonetheless

 

Thanks mate! Remember xps= xtreme preformance system=)


Lastest 3d mark 06 score=


score: 1907 overclock 551/1102/771 Temperatue peak 90

 

It's finished! And I placed a nifty switch at the front=)

 

That Glass tray completes the Design!

Hey you should start a company on this ..

Customized Notebook Coolers what do you think?

 

Haha, sure, that's an excelent idea! Especially considered the MASSIVE temperature drop by using a customized cooler instead of a general cooling pad!

 

Wow 5/5 for the effort man! you deserve a pat on the back.
i have a Zalman NC1000 and i have no idea if it works!
But, what i do know is, that i have my gfx OC'd to 511/1102/700 and my temperature doesnt get higher than 72~ degrees. Always around 68~

 

If i give you the photo of the back of my laptop ..can u build a Cooler for me?

 

That would be quite expensive for you considering I live in Norway where everything is $$$$$!

But please post a picture and I will tell you how I would have done it=)

 

Looks like a home made rocket launcher.

Awesome cooling design for that specific notebook

 

Thanks mate
