    Anyone have a suggestion for a laptop cooler for the Y580? I've been eyeing the Cooler Master Notepal U2 Notebook Cooler on amazon for a while but is there a better cooler for this laptop?

    I have one of those for my Y570. It dropped the max temperatures by about 20 degrees. Fairly inexpensive too.

    I have the U2 and it seems pretty good.

    It has solid construction and both the fans can be placed anywhere you feel they would make the most difference. They are silent for all practical purposes but that's also because they don't spin terribly fast.

    Not sure exactly how much of a difference it will make when it comes to actual temps but I'll put that in my review after I get my 580.
