#5 ways to keep your laptop cool and healthy
Laptops are basically portable computer. There are both advantages and disadvantages of buying a laptop. The most common problem there is with a laptop is the over heating problem, and sometimes it even causes the graphics interface to burn(in extreme cases)
So got a new laptop or your existing one?
I will tell you 5 ways to keep your laptop cool and calm. :)
- Always place your laptop on a flat surface like a table, never place it raw on your bed or pillow. Always you have to make sure that air is passing through the cooling vents, which in most cases are below your laptop.
- If you are keeping your laptop on your bed make sure to place a book first then place it over that keeping the vent area unblocked.
- Buy a laptop cool pad if possible, or make your own with old computer fans(a bit of engineering is required :D )
- Always keep the drivers, specially the graphics drivers updated, and try to avoid playing intense games on your laptop. (If a gamer is reading this don't feel harsh just have an external graphics card installed in your laptop then go for it)
- Last but not the least, try to clean the fans once in 3 months, just have a air gun or a vacuum cleaner. Turn it one then hold it near the cooling vents and all the places you seen open below the laptop. (If you don't do this dust will keep on growing in the fan area causing massive heating problems in future).
