I know I should probably get an external cooling setup of some kind, but I am also curious about cleaning the laptop and what sort of accessories I should get for that. For example:
- Is a keyboard cover available / worth it? I’ve seen some people say that the keyboard is also a fan intake… But I really don’t want the keyboard to get greasy either and I usually AM using the laptop’s default keyboard
- Should I bother to get a screen protector of some kind?
- Is an external cooling setup (like a cooling pad) worth it?
- How should I actually clean the laptop (like, do I just use a can of pressurized air to blow out the vents)?
- How can I best prevent fingerprints / scratches? I’m assuming a case would make it get hot…
Thank you!
Am not a gamer. But i made a sort of platform for my laptop to sit on to keep it being flush on a surface esp like couch or bed where no air goes in. I found a coated metal wire thingamagig thats the right size, and used zip ties to add stoppers so it doesn’t slide off. Im sure you can buy something like this instead of make it out of garbage like i did.
Anyways one of the really useful side benefits is that i can clip the power cord to the platform so that there is no tension on the connectors. My power outlets sometimes in the opposite direction from the connector and if i dont use the platform thing it is always pulling.
