    Hi, my 17R SE 7720 seems to be over-heating a bit, even when playing not too taxing games, it reaches temperatures of 90-100 degrees celcius. Therefore, I'm looking for a laptop cooler pad, although not sure which to get as most of them seem to have a fan or fans in the middle, whereas I can only see a fan being useless on the left side, also, due to the large size, I worry about purchasing one that would maybe not fit it well. Anyone got any personal experience on good laptop coolers that fit with this laptop?

    Thank you

    First thing to try would be to blow some compressed air through the vents. That's if you haven't tried it.

    Sorry, should have mentioned that I've blown compressed air through the vents.
