Newmodi Cool Laptop Stand Keeps Your Laptop Cool

A laptop stand is a great place to “park” your laptop and will also help keep it running cool and in peak performance. Popsicles and iced tea work great for us human beings, but that laptop that you depend on doesn’t have the luxury of an icy refreshing beverage to cool it off (and you don’t want to try pouring iced tea on your laptop)!

So, you've heard about keeping your computer cool, but have you ever wondered why it's such a great idea? Here’s the scoop: As manufacturers push their hardware to achieve greater speeds, the components require more energy to run. The end result is that the hardware puts out more heat than ever before. When the computer chip gets warmer, it causes those impulses to travel more slowly. This can result in the electronic impulses not arriving when they are supposed to, causing the computer to compute numbers incorrectly and eventually cause the computer to crash. With the newest processors, proper cooling has become essential for keeping a laptop stable

Laptops produce a lot of heat on their own and you’ll notice how they heat up when you are doing system intensive tasks like watching HD video or running a lot of applications at once. Generally, a heavy processor load prompts the laptop’s internal fan to whirl away a bit faster (you’ve likely noticed the additional noise coming from your otherwise quiet laptop). The computer’s fan will work as hard as needed to try and cool the laptop down, but when the air around the computer is hot it becomes more and more difficult for the computer to dissipate that additional heat. This usually results in a noticeable dip in performance and over time it can damage the computers internals or wear out the fan.  Although most laptops come with their own heat sinks and fans, they can be ineffective depending on the environment in which they are used so there are a few simple things you can do to ensure your laptop stays cool and runs smoothly.

1) Keep your laptop out of your lap. It’s a bit ironic but generally you want to keep your laptop out of your lap and off of any fabric covered surface. Your laptop likely has small feet or risers on the bottom which are there to provide space between the laptop and the surface it’s placed on. This allows space for air to pass under the laptop, helping cool the laptop by drawing away from the processor. Placing your laptop on a surface that doesn’t allow that space can cause your computer to heat up. Now you have an overheating computer in your lap, which for obvious reason is also not comfortable. New Modi’s portable folding laptop stand is the perfect solution, easily folding so you can go with you wherever you take your laptop.

2) Keep the inside of your laptop free from dust and other foreign objects. When dust and other foreign objects enter the interior of your laptop’s case and settle on the various internal components, they’ll form a layer of insulation. That layer of insulation will prevent heat from leaving the components and cause a build-up of heat there. The most common of these is the use of laptops on beds, pillows, and cushions. They will just suck up fluff like a hoover. Our vertical laptop stand solves this problem by position your laptop in a clean, obstructed free position that’s more ergonomic and less likely for the fans to suck in dust, lint, and other foreign objects.

3) Keep your laptop in the shade. Although it seems obvious, it’s important to remember to keep your laptop out of the sun. Laptops are convenient because you can just pick them up and get to work anywhere, but that means we don’t always put them away when were done with them. When you are not using your laptop always try to dock it somewhere safe and away from a window to make sure you haven’t left it baking in the sun all day. Our laptop stand for desks provides the perfect solution to make sure that your laptop is always in the shade and out of harm’s way.
