Tips to keep your laptop cool in the summer

As a result of laptop's limited internal space, laptop's cooling system is very different from desktop computers. The quality of cooling is crucial to the stability of the laptop, and since summer is here, this problem can not be ignored. CPU, graphic cards, hard drives, memory, and screen are the heart producing parts in the laptop computers. CPU is the biggest source of heat, which had a direct impact on the temperature of laptop. My friends used to joke that she can use her laptop's CPU to fry eggs.

So, there are some good tips for keeping your laptop cool.

1. Keep the environment as cool as possible. Using a laptop computer in the hot summer, youd better use your air-conditioning. If there is no air-conditioning, at least use fans. Otherwise, even if the laptop withstand, I am afraid you will not.

2. Put something under the laptop to allow airflow between the laptop and the desk. It may sound like a small trick, but a very important one. You can put part of a book under the laptop, or you can buy the laptop cooling pads which works extremely well considering how cheap they are.

3. When using the laptop in the bed or sofa, try not to block the air outlet of the laptop. There are so many cases that the laptop died simply because there is no way to get the hot air out. In summer time, you don't want to live in a house with all windows closed, neither does your laptop.

Summer is always challenging for all the electronics. Use your common sense , and your cheap laptop will be as cool as you.
