I was going to get this around Black Friday but wasn't sure cuz of the price. You just sold me on it. The difference in temps will be amazing for my laptop during the summer here in San Diego SoCal.
Medium fan results are INSANE. I'm picking up the 2024 model of the ROG STRIX G16 and while it has really great temps, it gets pretty hot here in Jamaica, so this will be a HUGE help. Thanks for making this video my friend.
I bought one of these and it arrived yesterday. Beau avoids testing at louder fan noises because of the excessive noise, but I was a brave boy and gave it a try at max speed. 😂 In BG3 at the later more graphically demanding levels, with my Slim7 set to Performance & graphics cranked up to Ultra, it was able to keep the GPU
Great review. I recently bought the IETS version, the GT600. I like the hold down clips better, less intrusive, and the foam has embedded magnets to help hold it in place. The cooling is impressive. I seldom need to go above 1000 - 1200 on fan speed to keep temps in the 60 - 75 range.
Great info! I watched another vid where the reviewer "had some serious concerns" about recommending this one based on the noise, and the hapless comments section seemed to be warded off by it. That reviewer failed to mention what this one highlighted, that you don't need to run it full blast to see benefits, and that the quietest setting cools better than any of the cheap alternatives. As for the loudest setting, it's not the unit's fault -- moving lots of air just makes noise. I probably wouldn't set it to max, but it's nice just knowing it's there.
Makes sense; I definitely wouldn’t be running it full speed. It was scarily loud. But even low made a big difference. Half I guess is good if you have a beefy boy laptop
@@TechGuyBeau I just got mine today, and at max levels it reminds me of my dad’s 1970’s Super-8 projector, which had a massive fan for cooling the extremely hot bulb. But it’s a consistent sound, so active noise cancelling headphones should help. Just for fun, I wonder how much I can overclock my slim 7 with this at max.
Just the video (especially combination with the Legion cuz they have different air vents on the bottom compared to the norm, i.e. why the IETS GT500 tends to not do much for it) I was looking for/needed. Thank you.
My order comes in 3 days hopefully I get good results, if I still have some issues will have to repaste my laptop and redo the thermal pads, just didn't want to damage parts by mistake.
It’s not too bad if you take your time. Be sure to disconnect the battery immediately, you may want to ensure you were not all static electrically charged. And then when you disconnect the heat sink take your time and be gentle. Make sure you disconnect any of the fans That are connected to the motherboard
Also, I noticed when upscaling video if you just minimize the screen to your taskbar so that only the desktop is showing, you can get a few degrees lower temps on the cpu. But yes I have one of these and @ only 600rpm's my cpu stays in the high 70's low 80's while upscaling vs 90+ degrees without. And the gpu stays in the 60's at 600rpm while upscaling.
Great video. Detailed. Like deserved. I have a Msi Katana 17, It's brand new. I am sure you know how msi katana's vent grill looks, and I am a bit lost what to go for, I have 3 options, v10, because its alot smaller, not so bulky, or v12, or gt600, help me bro:D
Looks good but how usefull it is due to size? can you type on it? it doent look comfortable with how long it is in the front. Maybe using it for docked mode and use keyboard mouse and monitor
i want to buy IETS GT600 its like 155EUR on amazon with shipping i have lenovo legion 7i RTX 4090 and currently have some cheap garbage cooling pad for 20 EUR when i game my GPU usually is around 70C-75C and cpu spikes from 78C - 87C i wonder how much lower temps I could get with it :)
Will using the USB Hub via USB-C to USB-A draw less power from the laptop? Ex. Connecting mouse/keyboard onto the Ilano cooler instead of directly to the laptop. Or is the difference negligible?
I second this question, Amazon Link says it's for 15-19inch laptops. Although the Slim 5 14 isn't THAT much smaller than a 15 inch laptop with the 16:10 and extra .5 inch diagonal…
And I third this question. I have an Asus G14 (Rog Zephyrus) laptop, and it would be great to know whether or not I can use this cooler. Have any of you bought this?
Brother i need a serious suggestion and help I have 2022 legion slim 7i And left side of the display doesn't closes properly amd stays elevated I think it may ne due to one side tighter hinges Do we need to remove all the thermal paste and heatsinks while repairing or amything dong wiht hngesbon that laptop plz i need your help it doesn't closes properly and i am scared
I have concerns. What ive deduced is that although lowered temp benefits in relation to the GPU and CPU, there are possible unforeseen dangers to laptop longevity. The heat being dissipated has to go somewhere. And just because the heat to the GPU and CPU is reduced, where is that dissipated heat going? Inadvertantly it is possibly being shifted to other components which are not designed to get excess heat. These fans "could" push air out of the laptops designed air flow routes and spill over to other "heat sensitive" components. Im hesitient to use such a generic product on a 2k + device.
The heat comes out the vents. Basically what this is doing is helping the laptop intake air. If you watch HWINFO you can see that really all the components run cooler
Does it vibrate on the desk though? Every time I've bought one of these high-end cooling pads it's not the high pitch whine of the fans that bothers me but the low frequency noise from the vibrations they create against your desk.
They are basically the exact same. The gt600 is not a lot better. The only thing I'll give the gt600 is that it's nice having the magnets hold the foam in place, and it can elevate a little more. Personally, I'd rather have the scroll wheel of the llano than the push button of the gt600.
I read some comments from a reddit post that the gt500 or gt600 are not that good specifically for legion laptops and they said that their keyboard is getting too hot. Does this llano tech cooler does get your keyboard hot on gaming? I really want to invest on a cooler like these brands and get the best value without any drawbacks or problems and for preventing dust on the laptop fans as well as I just got them replaced from the warranty.
Im using this brand the last year modrl.but looks exactly the same with my legion 5 and 5 pro. Honestly if you never change the original paste of the legion which is ptm7950 honeywell, my daily gaming usage i only use around 300-600 rpm. Both cpu and gpu are properly cooled. But maybe next time i rather get amd laptop. Intel way too hot.

Nice! You are a brave one unlike me haha. It’s quite a good cooler
Are you not afraid of the laptop flying off the pad at turbo speeds? :DD
@@ikuma8291Haha yes, I mean the thing is really just a repurposed drone. At max levels, it actually feels a bit chilly.

Got one too. It really does cool down the laptop. Usually laptop its getting warm on the palm and keyboard, but not with IETS GT600 lol.

legion bros! Seems identical to IETS GT600. Sound is kinda the same, but with a bit of premium looks
Great video. Detailed. Like deserved.

Probably get whatever is cheapest
damn, its looks amazing. Do Lenovo laptops decrease fans speed in performance mode when temps are low or its the same speed just with lower temps?
When the pad is going, the system fans will slow down as they are barely needed. So in theory this pad might prolong the endurance of the laptop fans
@@TechGuyBeau hope so, performance mode so loud 🥺 The cooling pad looks promising, my current one is efficient as just lifting the back of my laptop 😅
@@blondegirl7240 this thing can get crazy loud, but on 300-500rpm is still quiter than my laptop
@@TechGuyBeau i think 300 will be enough for me :D
Great review do you reckon Llano is superior to IETS GT600?
About the same probably. Only this is cheaper
Accidently bought this because of higher rpm of fan. I have a m18 r2. Can I make it fit?
Looks good but how usefull it is due to size? can you type on it? it doent look comfortable with how long it is in the front.
Maybe using it for docked mode and use keyboard mouse and monitor

They do work quite well. Here in Canada they are only $110 CAD, which is well worth the price for the cooling.
@@TechGuyBeau yeah so i got mine few days ago and it is really good my GPU now holds under 60C and CPU un 70C
Will using the USB Hub via USB-C to USB-A draw less power from the laptop? Ex. Connecting mouse/keyboard onto the Ilano cooler instead of directly to the laptop. Or is the difference negligible?
A mouse and keyboard will use negligible amounts of power
Nice! How does a smaller laptop like the Slim 5 14" fit on this?

It fits perfect
Brother i need a serious suggestion and help
I have 2022 legion slim 7i
And left side of the display doesn't closes properly amd stays elevated
I think it may ne due to one side tighter hinges
Do we need to remove all the thermal paste and heatsinks while repairing or amything dong wiht hngesbon that laptop plz i need your help it doesn't closes properly and i am scared
hey Beau, were these max temperatures that you recorded or are they averages?
Average
I have concerns.

It doesn’t seem to really vibrate that much
You can try gt 600 it a lot better I think but the price of it -_-

@@kevinmitchell766I agree with you I have the gt600 plus klim everest cooling pad with a 4300 rpm but now I am going go buy this llano as well
I have this cooler and I think you placed the foam in wrong orientation.
I read some comments from a reddit post that the gt500 or gt600 are not that good specifically for legion laptops and they said that their keyboard is getting too hot.

I really want to invest on a cooler like these brands and get the best value without any drawbacks or problems and for preventing dust on the laptop fans as well as I just got them replaced from the warranty.
I’m not sure why they would say the keyboard gets hot. That doesn’t make any sense. All is doing is forcing more air into the bottom of the laptop
Get this cooler, you will not be dissapointed.
Whats the use of the usb type c port?
Data transfer. This also works as a usb hub
I love mine😊
Does it filter out the dust from getting inside the laptop? I also have a legion laptop
Yes
Yoww this give me some idea👀
Does it fit an 18inc laptop?
It should yes. It might hang over a bit though. But so long as you have the intake uncovered shouldn’t matter
its 300$ with all delivery costs damn, no way
Wtf? What country? It’s like $110 CAD (85 usd).
@@TechGuyBeau in Serbia via amazon, so yeah delivery costs more than cooler
