CeBIT 2010 Highlights: Notebook Coolers

Posted on 25 March 2010 by Alexander A.T. Rainville

100_0835 What better way than to end our CeBIT 2010 highlight strip than with a parade of new notebook coolers.  A few makers brought some new product to the table with Zalman leading the charge.  They effectively doubled their current line of notebook coolers while Titan continued its innovative ways and Cooler Master refreshing the old.

Zalman

Zalman released a trio of notebook coolers at CeBIT 2010. Few details have left the convention center and reached the net but we expect only the best from Zalman.

Since the beginning Zalman notebook coolers have pushed air through a circular ventilation holes on the surface of the cooler. They have done no different in their latest coolers whilst though changing aesthetics and increasing variety. With the release of these latest coolers, Zalman has doubled their lineup of coolers and apparently increased the number of fans in some units over the standard two.

We look forward to hearing more and possibly even getting our hands on some of these coolers.

Zalman NC1500 mini

1500mini Joining the rush of netbook oriented coolers is the Zalman NC1500 mini. Sharing many design features with its siblings the NC1500 mini can, as quite obvious from its name, be summed up as a small version of the NC1500.

Zalman NC2500/2500 Plus

2500 The NC2500 was the most intriguing of the three coolers released. From what we gather it appears to be the case that there are four vertically placed fans powering the cooling system. The “Plus” version of the cooler additionally packs a 2.5” SATA enclosure embedded in the base of the cooler for added storage. For those not in need of the enclosure, the NC2500 will likely come with a lower price tag.

Zalman NC3000

3000 There is currently no information leaked on this unit but due to the model number we suspect it will be the largest cooler released by Zalman. We will keep you up to date as we get it in.

Cooler Master

CM Storm SF19 Gaming Notebook Cooler

The CM Storm SF19 is a gaming notebook stand that supports notebooks up to 19”. Clearly from the sheer size of the cooler Cooler Master means business. The aesthetics of the cooler should please any gamer with its black and grey color pattern and blue LEDs.

There are 4 USB 2.0 ports with small holes to facilitate cable management. There is also an on/off power button as well as a control for the dual 140mm fans. Mounting a fan up to 200mm fan is also possible.

Expect the SF19 to show up on store shelves around the time of Computex (August 2010) for under $70.

Cooler Master NotePal ErgoStand

Simplified, the ErgoStand is a slimmed down, versatile and portable Notepal X2. It features a 14 cm fan with speed control and an On / Off switch. Incorporated into the sides of the cooler are two handles to keep cables organized. With 4 USB ports the ErgoStand has double the number of available ports compared to the X2 and more adjustability.

Rather than going with regular prop up feet, Cooler Master has fitted the ErgoStand with an easy to adjust base. Unlike regular prop up feet the base allows for five different settings.

Pricing is currently unavailable.

Titan TTC G9TZ Netbook Cooler

Like a book the aluminum pad of the G9TZ netbook cooler folds in half. The cooler is actually two pieces; the aluminum pad can be removed from the base by undoing the clips. This is why the G9T is considered as a 3 in one cooling pad.

The aluminum pad and base can be used alone or together. The base houses two 80mm fans pumping out 21.48CFM.
