Is this considered good heat dissipation in a laptop?

    That’s beautiful minus the condensation that might occur probably.

    Well it is better than many, but blowing air is just one thing. Talking about heat we need exchange surface, material mass, heatpipes tech and such.

    Like already mentioned here, the mechanics of heat exchange is not just dictated by airflow. This has good airflow for sure, but at the end of the day, good airflow doesn’t mean anything apart from that, in fact good airflow without good access just might mean you will have a dusty laptop which you can’t clean well. It’s a good marketing gimmick, but at the end of the day, a gimmick.

    I assume that’s dry ice in water, so that looks like a good way of introducing water vapour into the PC.

    No. It has unimpeded airflow at the bottom, they should test with the laptop placed right on the table top and pour the gas beside the device.

    That battery silently cries for help as it is working

    Dramatic changes in temperature lead to thermal expansion/contraction. Some of the soldered leads will develop fractures and begin a cycle of rapid degradation. Do not recommend.

    I wouldn’t buy laptop runs that hot.

    In my experience, the main weak point of many gaming laptops cooling is actually their thermal paste/liquid metal and thermal putty application. Replacing the stock paste with PTM7950/PhaseSheet and K5 Pro has consistently improved system temperatures by 10 to 20°C in my experience.

    Willie Nelson would still outsmoke this laptop.

  11. Good thing they circled and zoomed in. Wasnt sure where to look

  12. no one has yet pointed out that the melting dry ice is creating pressure under the intake artificially increasing the airflow. would be a more accurate to display this with smoke.

    Good airflow is 1 of the many factors of a good cooling system.There is no use if you have high airflow but the air can’t move the heat out of the system due to low fin density

  15. that looks awesome! just don’t do it for too long otherwise condensation could cause some BIG issues.

  16. Cool demo, but heat doesnt dissapate the same way dry ice does, so this is a little misleading, you can take from this that the fans are powerful and route air away from the laptops components though thats a W.

    I still want to see how thick the heatsinks are and how they’re positioned relative to the rest of the machine.

  17. They did this to show how much airflow the fans are displacing. Same energy as water filter sales persons dropping pH testers into their filtrated water to ‘showcase’ how using their filter improved water pH

    its a air filter for youre room, traps dust inside to device and provides easy access on the bottom to clean it

    Well, the legion series of laptops have been known to be quite good with cooling
