Hi everyone,
I got my Latop ASUS ROG GL502VM 2 months ago and I'm very satisfied with it.
But I wanted to know if it worths it to get a Laptop cooling pad. I've been checking in forums and reviews and found mixed opinions about them. What eveyone seems to agree on is that they are more efficient with each laptop model.
Is anyone who has this laptop has noticed any improvement by adding a cooling pad?. if so, which do you recommend it?.
Right now my usual temperatures are:
CPU
Idle: 40/50C
Gaming: 80/90C with peaks up to 95C
GPU
Idle 30/45C
Gaming: 75/85C
Room temperature: 20/25C
If I lower the maximum processor state to disable turbo boost, the CPU temps don't go higher than 85C, but I'd like to be able to use Turbo Boost.
Thanks in advance!

I have used numerous cooling pads with my GL702VMK and I have found the cooler master notepal x-slim to work the best. It has one large 180mm fan and seems to cool my rig by about 2-3 degrees C more than any of the others which had 3 smaller fans rather than one large one. If you want more cooling, look at the Opolar LC06 heat vacuum.

Thanks!, I believe the Opolar LC06 (and all those kind of vaccuum cleaners) is meant for laptops with side ventilation and mine has them in the back. The CM notepal X-slim II seems a pretty good option. Thanks!

I use two of them and they definitely help.

the vacuum won't fit because you said it, the screen lid blocks part of the vents.
This is what I use when I need extreme cooling.
It has legs that can tilt the fan up when lying on a table.
like this.....

Thanks for your suggestion!, that would truly put some air to the laptop!, but I move around a lot and need a more "portable" solution.
That reminds me when I had my old AMD K6 II and in summer I had open the case and put a fan on the side to throw some air at it so it wouldn't shut down :))).
