Akasa Helix Widescreen Notebook Cooler Review

Laptop coolers are becoming a very popular accessory as more and more people turn to using laptops as their choice of computer system. Laptops do have a reoccurring theme that nearly all get quite hot, this is due to their design and their compromise between thickness, size and airflow. Unfortunately, this is not too good for the components and more importantly your lap.

We have seen various designs hitting the market and the common theme is a nice large fan blowing air up towards the laptop and from first glance this looks to be very similar. Akasa don’t seem to have produced anything too revolutionary recently they seem to be coming up with products similar to their competitions (or their competitors are copying them very quickly) while aiming to outperform them for the same price. On the other hand Akasa led the way with their Akasa Venom CPU Cooler which has since been copied religiously.

Akasa are at the forefront of the PC components market and are well known for their ‘Superb Design and Engineering’. Currently their products range from CPU coolers and fans to cases and power supplies and several things in between. They are a company who are very aware of its target market and as such tend to produce products that are very popular, like the Akasa Venom for instance.
