    A few days back i purchased my N5010 Dell laptop, so now i'm looking for a cooler.. I think a lot of you got this laptop and that's why i thought you could help me out. I'm not looking for something expensive ... but either way you can suggest a cooler that you have and think that did a good job with your laptop.

    Is it better having 1 big fan or 3 smaller? Ok i know it deppends on the fan's speed+power and where it hits the laptop...but in a more general way which one is better?

    I highly recommend the Cooler Master U2/U3 for the cost to performance ratio.

    Well, your 1rst suggestion was a cooler with 3 small fans, while the 2ncd one had 1 big fan... Is it better having one big fan at your cooler or 2-3 small ones? As i see it i think one is better, but i'm hoping someone can answer me this with a few pros/cons !!
