The Eumax Titan notebook fan pad is a cheap investment for those that worry about overheating their hardware or burning their lap.
Summary
For around $20 the Eumax Titan notebook fan pad is a cheap investment for those that worry about overheating their hardware or burning their lap. The fact that our informal testing didn't match what the manufacturer claims is somewhat bothersome but in defense of Eumax they do not state what points were measured or how, making it impossible for us to perform an apples to apples comparison.
The bottom line is we did see an improvement in temperatures and that can only benefit the longevity of your notebook or your comfort while computing. Enlarging the size of the fans to 80mm would no doubt improve the temperature reduction but would also increase the noise factor. It seems the Eumax Titan fan pad is a nice tradeoff between temperature reduction and noise level and it's lightweight, compactness and ease of use outweigh the cheesy tribal graphic.
