What an elegant and practical cooling solution for all laptop owners
ceep your hands away from integrated keyboard, use external mouse and keyboard or just joystick.
Affordable too
I vote to change the channel name to "Dawid Does Pointless Stuff". I'm not complaining - it's entertaining to watch.
Haha!! That may come in the future. 😅
@@DawidDoesTechStuff you should create a seperate channel called that
What's the point, then he will just get less views on it
Dawid Does Tech and sometimes Pointless Stuff
Nice 69 likes
Laptop: overheating
Me: Open up the laptop, and replace the thermal paste
Dawid: *T O W E R C O O L E R S*
lol I thought this would be a legitimate guide but then I realized it was Dawid xD
@@aaronlui8477 Haha!! My bad. 😅
Am I the actual only one waiting for the day when Dawid uses LN2 to overclock a Gameboy or something like that?
@@methodmantis3060 nope me too 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I put liquid metal and keep the bottom off of my dell g7 7588 while sitting on a fan stand. It still runs full load at 80 at 3.9GHz all cores
"if u have a gaming lamptop"
Generous of u to assume that my laptop can work as a lamptop
There is nothing like a good lamptop.
@@DawidDoesTechStuff Wonder if you could get wide zip ties, melt holes through them with a soldering iron & just have some like spongy material too sort of act as mounting material in the middle of the heatpipes above the heat plate & screwing the zip ties down once they are tight enough into the stock cooler mounting, might flex a bit & move around on you but if done right should have higher mounting pressure.
DIY Perks had a very old video of applying big heavy coolers onto a laptop Motherboard.
He might have some good techniques on getting good mounting pressure for doing this
My laptop glows hot enough with its terrible cooling that it can be considered a lamptop

No. The gaming pc at home is the windows vista machine that got pulled out of the closet
I mean it is a gaming laptop soo
I know people who game with computers with far less power than this
@@GlorifiedGremlin sure u do
@@letssaylalala from 2014
The reason performance went down when you over clocked is because the laptop VRMS can’t keep up with the higher clocks. I had a similar thing with an old Core 2 Quad machine. It would perform better at 3ghz than at 3.2ghz.
mine is the opposite. Works like a NASA PC at clocks like 5.0 ghz but them temps be reaching 85-99
Hahahaha, I'm the type of person, who goes all of the internet searching on how to overclock a cpu that's not overclockable 😂
Same as well
Hahaha!! Yeah, that's exactly what I had to do with the laptop's CPU. 😁
me three 😁
Yup same here, took me forever to realize that my i7 9700f wasn't overclockable, total noob move on my part.
@@jaredchampagne2752 I hope you weren't trying to OC the IGP 🤣🙄

@@DawidDoesTechStuff I’m glad to see that you reply to comments Dawid! Your a great UA-camr and one day you’ll be even bigger
@@jacob-yr3py I love interacting with the comment section. You all are funny as hell.
Thanks for the nice comment.
@@DawidDoesTechStuff oh and also, in the video you did about the “10 core” 380$ pc, the 3tb hard drive in it has spun 16 billion 228 million times 👀👀
My man, I need to see you playing with Liquid Metal on your things. The added danger makes me terrified but happy
Funnily enough, I actually have some liquid metal in coming. 😁
@@DawidDoesTechStuff I AM EXCITED :D
@@DawidDoesTechStuff liquid metal gt 1030 lol
The liquid metal has cometh!
I’m genuinely surprised you remembered to disconnect the battery 😂
He's going to melt the cat at some point....
I think I would have been in real trouble if I forgot to disconnect it AGAIN. 😂
@@DawidDoesTechStuff you disconnected the keyboard not the battery. battery connector is the one with alot of red wires.
"Those temperatures sure are as sexy as hell"...expected 69c - Disappointed, Dawid xD.
Haha!! Damn, huge missed opportunity. 😅
Nobody:
Dawid "I think this was a very useful video!!"
It's a useless video
"Now this is starting to look really stupid, which means we're getting really close to a solution." This is pretty solid logic.
I suggest attaching the AIO to the heat pipes so that mounting pressure remains adequate and heat is transferred away in a more efficient manner. The proper way would be a copper plate covering the two dies, using the original mounting holes with an AIO attached on top.
Ok Dawid, this was the most crazy and genius thing I saw here in your channel. Congrats man
Thank you. 😁
Try 99 sometimes 100°c when gaming lol
THAT CAT AT THE BEGGINNING LOOKED LIKE A PANCAKE!!!😍
*Nom Nom Nom*
He was having a great time on the laptop. 😅
The IHS on desktops is different from laptops. You can't just put a drop of thermal paste in the middle and hope the mounting pressure spreads it evenly like on a desktop. With laptops, you take some good branded thermal paste and evenly spread a thin layer across the entire IHS. You'd still run hot, but most likely in the 70-85 without thermal throttling at load depending on the laptop.
Trial and error guided me through this, I tried the dot method, and it was thermal throttling, evenly spread the layer and you get much better temps at load without throttling, cheers. Also make sure you're at the latest bios. If this is not enough, you may be able to undervolt like -.050v and in some cases, if you raise the laptop, the intake fans from the bottom can easily take in more cool air.
It's a direct die cooling since laptop CPU and GPU doesn't have IHS above the chip
@@sihamhamda47 correct
what about using thermal pads, instead of paste?
@@thebestever333 You need the right thermal pads with the correct specification to cool down a specific amount of heat per area enough to dissipate from your CPU. In my experience, off the shelf generic thermal pads don't cool as well as generic thermal paste.
Yeah different in the sense that THEY DON'T EXIST
This can open a discussion though. Laptops usually come much cheaper than a desktop. Maybe we can start a modding craze on which we buy laptops that do have good parts and put actually good cooling on them to get desktop performance.
A desktop setup should be cheaper, because is big and clunky and not portable and you pay more to get the downsizing of a laptop.
@@ElGoogKO mobile options aren't that different pricing wise as before.
Like before a laptop with the capabilities of a 500$ pc would cost 800-1000$.
But now a laptop with the capability of a 500$ pc costs 650$.
And also keep in mind many pc vs laptop price comparisons happily don't take into account the price of a monitor which you kinda need.
It's irrelevant if you have one from your 20 previous builds. For a first time beginner that's atleast 100$ for a run of the mill 1080p monitor.
dawid, i know the verge pc build has been reacted to by everyone but i think your reaction in a video would be the best
I tried to put the laptop underwater as cooling solution, it’s awesome the temperature are so low that the laptop shut down itself to prevent damage!!! It’s insane
I tried this with my high end laptop that my dad bought yesterday with his last money. The laptop got so cold even my dad passed out because he never saw that cold CPU before in laptop. What a great advice thanks man
@@vyrkolach5546 it’s awesome, even the screen is all black and the speaker are so quite while playing. Even the fan is turned off.
I like this kind of janky stuff. It's highly amusing. I was having this internal argument about how evga seems to have slacked off with their cooling in recent years. I was given a GTX 480 with a heatsink that could past tense someone. But, My RTX 2060's heatsink is basically is feather in comparison. I kinda wanna see how effective the old 480 bricksink could chill the 2060.
I love your jank/ghetto mods, it gives me so much inspiration to rip into old oem pcs and just combine random shit together and make custom heat sinks and try to get as low of temps as possible in dell proprietary cases
Next up: put it In a vacuum filled with helium and flood the chamber with liquid nitrogen
Your mods are becoming more and more practical by the day😆😆
Haha!! I know right? 😅
@@DawidDoesTechStuff ....loving it though
@@DawidDoesTechStuff ...i had a very similar setup in college...😆😆
@@soumyadeepmitrayo94 Oh that's awesome!
Me before watching the video: Maybe this will help. Me after watching the video: Maybe I don't do this to a brand new Blade Pro 17.
Oh please don't do it to a brand new Razer Blade. 😅
he needs to buy electrical tape 😂
My laptop runs extremely hot even when just running chrome with 32gb of ram. Is there anyway this can be fixed without spending any money or changing clock speeds
@James's Gems ^^^
Get an air blower and blow out the vents. I just started using a laptop last month as my PCs are all down. After a month of use it became very slow, it's new, no malware, so I blew it out with my trusty datavac that I use for the PC's and it sped back up. I researched a little and found this is a common issue that gets overlooked, good luck!
Don't close air intake holes, open even more holes for air to come in, clean cooler, repaste cpu, change thermal pads if there are any, buy a custom cooling solution for your laptop if there is any, or just ask Dawid more directly lol
Throttlestop is good undervolting program.It can reduce heat from your laptop.
Replace thermal paste if u cant do it yourself go to a near pc shop or a friend who know tech
you unplugged the keyboard, not the battery
Next on Dawid's list: Overclock CPU & GPU using taser.
Has to overclock the CPU & GPU and get good thermals or he gets tased by g/f
Anna walks in, sees this monstrosity, turns around to the 12 pack of fire extinguishers and leaves 5 in a pentagram style around this setup.
Didnt expect to teardown the damn laptop lol
not gonna lie, i started laughing when the temps dropped by so much from the push on top of the cooler
Haha!! Yeah, it's pretty weird that tape could make such a huge difference. 😅
Man I look forward to all your videos bro, its a fun environment and just genuine
I feel like there's a way somewhere to mod this into something practical.
I think you can use pipes and the pipes goes to the giant fan towers. Also adding more fans to the towers. And making a 3d printed enclosure.
But in practice maybe a external gpu could be a better alternative. I know that it's a joke but it has potential.
I actually did on my samsung Rv509 (It's my folding at home pc) but I used a Socket 478 stock cooler and I mounted it permanently by actually drilling holes on the Cooler so that I am able to mount the cooler from the back of the motherboard using screws. And after that my load temps dropped from 97°c to 42c
I was thinking about this for 2 years now. Finally someone did it.
I wonder if you could just put the laptop in a mini case so you won't destroy the whole thing when bumping it.
But I feel like that would ruin temperatures.
I guess you could just tape the coolers to the laptop? 😅
@@DawidDoesTechStuff nah, just lots of zip ties 🧐
Before the intro: This is the mobile Ryzen APU on steroids, isn't it?
3 minute mark: CALLED IT!
Dawid's officially graduated from mad scientist school & it's beautiful to see XD
Owning a laptop is like living in a perpetual state of fear.
Fear of dust and the high temperature slowly killing the already throttling out of the box 'feature' of a laptop.
This video was inevitable.
I had a gaming laptop that ran really hot. I put it up on 4 dixey cups giving it come clearance off the table and it lowered the temperature by a huge amount.
Me:Expecting a good guide to make tempretures cooler
Dawid:TOWER COOLER!!!
i hope in the future they consider this and leave an opening/hatch on the floor of the laptop where you then can clamp on some cooling block/baseplate to extend the heatpipe
Cool idea
Dawid: I know Tower Coolers On a Laptop
Me: ☠️☠️☠️🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
When I saw the thumbnail I knew you were going to violate the laptop somehow...
Violate: good word.
The censor was the big give away. 😅
Me watching this on my laptop.
My laptop : (sweats) -_-
Or you could order a "new" backplate for the laptop, drill holes in it facing the heat pipes, put the laptop "normally" on a stand with feet long enough to fit the cooler upside down and let the cooler cool the heat pipes ? Plus if you use a thermal pad on the cooler you can always create a custom door on the modded backplate to keep portability while maintaining good enough contact.
"Son, are you cleaning your laptop, or trying to make a Mustang?"
BRB gonna go put a whole roll of duct tape on my desktop
Laptop: Cool me down daddy!
Dawid: yes
Those laptop temps were pretty decent to begin with, if you want a more stable thermal experience and better frequency stability you should’ve just undervolted but this works too
yeah even 92c on 3d furmark was not even unusual for a laptop was even surprised it didn't go over 95c.
Good stuff!
Makes you wonder why no one sells huge alternative bases for various laptop models. Many people use their laptop as a desktop replacement with a screen, mouse and keyboard after they are done studying and don't need to be mobile anymore. I am typing this on a Macbook Pro Early 2011 that I got for free a week ago. The thing runs great, but the fan ramps up for literally anything. Would be kind of cool to make it into a phatmac with a huge base, and way lower temperatures.
I am seeing a trend. "This is really a bad idea." appears in almost all your videos. So exciting!
1:28 I'm pretty sure those ribbon cables are not for battery
Display and keyboard 😂
“It’s not plugged in...I’m so dumb...” lol
What FPS software do you use?
this is literally the craziest thing ive seen this month. like who in the world would ever do this. hhahahahahahaha
Ikr lmao
this man had his cat on his laptop lol
Find me walking into class with coolers installed on my laptop lol
I have a laptop with these problems of overheating, I grabbed the cooler of a graphics card and I'm in the process of installing it, I'm already adapting it, seeing this video encourages me much more!
thanks for such a good video, a good MOD!
this channel content keeps getting crazier and I'm living it 😂
First, nice to see you disconnect the power on the laptop. Second, this video was some of the most ridiculous tech content I have ever watched and I loved it!
Everyone: yeah this is very funny and entertaining, no one's doing that
Me: seriously looks to my laptop.......
To be continued
9:24 this is absolutely the most useful video I've ever seen. I'm going to buy a laptop right now and 2 tower coolers to do this, to replace my 3700x/2080ti gaming pc.
thank you for making experiments! now i kind of understand how cooling works in laptop
When I decided to add a graphics card to my laptop is when I learnt this one trick.
Another cookie but excellent video Dawid. Regarding the close to other components problem , use some helicopter tape over them to prevent shorting and Im thinking you could use some copper coins or plate possibly cut to shape between the chip and the cooler to give you clearances.
Bro, I love how at 5:07 he attaches the external psu, and is like “that probably going to impact portability” after he just installed 2 air coolers to a laptop
It is neat the way you improved the cooling while maintaining the portability.
Fart in a hurricane 😂😂. I swear you must have a metaphor of the day toilet paper or something.
As someone who is currently endeavoring to piece together a banger 720p/1080p rig from 6 years ago, I salute your efforts here.
It all started for me when I pulled a perfectly fine AMD A10 7800 APU out of an old Lenovo desktop a few weeks ago. Then I found a new, still sealed in the bag Asus A88X Pro board for $50. And then just yesterday I stumbled upon the best , most incredible deal for completely obsolete machinery ever and obtained two (count em TWO) used but pristinely kept GTX 980 Kingpin cards with ALL of the OG packaging and accessories and an SLI bridge for $300. I'm still in awe of this deal.
Now I'm at the point where I feel like the spirit of this machine is trying so hard to manifest into the real world that it would simply be cruel of me not to facilitate it the rest of the way.
Also, considering what I've already got going into this thing, it's going to end up being an actual monster.
Now I just need to find one of those old Corsair or Thermaltake cases that look like a space shuttle from the 1980s and I'll be in business.
i still remember my hp elitebook 2570p with 104c on gpu and cpu. ran it daily 10 hours a day for over a year and still works.
I always wanted to build a custom water cooling system for my laptop.
"In GTA V it did as much as a fart in a hurricane" haha!
Can I have your cat?
loved it all! start to finish! liked. subbed.
imagine having one of these and then a earthquake shows at the party to ruin it
Dawid as a technician I can agree that this is the best way to cool any laptop
Idk, my laptops cooler is in perfect condition, but it stops to work every 5minutes or so.. And both cores temp is above 95.. So.. What should I do?
On your next cooling experiments, Try a thermal pad instead of a paste, and it might have a better contact and easier to apply your (ahmm) "solutions"
Seems like that GT1030 cooler would fit perfectly across both the GPU and CPU in that laptop.
Love the crazy scientist videos!
This was very silly... I loved it.
“That would probably not impact portability too much” 😂😂😂
You know its gonna be a good vid when he says "consumer advice" and "hotter than the surface of mercury" in the intro.
at first I thought it was a funny joke, until I understood it was the actual "solution"
interesting stuff..keep it up bro,doesnt matter the end result
People say the some craziest ideas work but im not expecting this kind of method
I really wanted to try the same thing on my overheating laptop that throttles all the time! Bravo!
not "Ideal" but the "Best"? Yes, Hands down its a winner.
This may be the best tech video ever made.
This guy makes my forbidden dreams come true
Marvelously unuseful as always - great work Dawid!👍
Only 90C? My MSI gaming was 95C this summer, the case would be too hot to touch above the main chips and the blowers were like hair dryers.
Oh just remember, when I was testing the ambient temp was only 18c. So in summer this thing would catch in fire. 😁
@@DawidDoesTechStuff OK, I shall let you off then, fair excuse! 😉😉🤪🤪
The full load cpu temp is about my idle cpu temp lol.
我也是 xD
还主机好。。。
I had this problem on my 15inch asus gaming laptop, the things a furnace. After changing the thermal paste, best is just to start using a laptop cooler.
Ameture just chuck it into a freezer
i laughed hard when quagmire appear haha
on my laptop I use 4 small square fans to blow air into the vents on top of the laptop. I used to also have a vacuum port device that would suck the hot air out. If I used all that while gaming the laptop would stay around 32C to 55C when everything was running at max for a long time. Without it the lap top would consistently be at 98C to 100C+
a solid giggity at 6:42
Between David and Jeff Geerling, I can lmao and still learn fresh stuff. Kudos!
