Inspiron 7577, question about vents at the back of laptop
I bought recently Inspiron 7577 with GTX 1060 max-Q 16GB ram and an i7 CPU. When I play games, this laptop gets super hot. I have already added a cooler but it doesn't help. I want to purchase opolar laptop cooler =
to put it on ventilation to see if it is going to cool it down a little bit. But it have two ventilation's at the back so I don't know on which one i can put it or it doesn't matter? Because I read that one side pulls air in and the other pushes it out.

I have already similar laptop cooler to that one that u posted with 4 big fans. If both vents are pushing air out of laptop than opolar should be good for that ? Because opolar is pulling air out of laptop not pushing it in.

zareapa,
I made some additions to your post so that we could understand the product to which you were referring.
"I have already added a cooler but it doesn't help"
* What cooler?
Based on the Service Manual for the Inspiron 7577,
The bottom base cover vents pull air into the chassis =
And both rear vents are pushing air out of the chassis via the fans =
Based on that, the opolar laptop cooler will not work. You would need to find a laptop cooler that is designed to sit under the laptop.

I see what you mean. So if you can physically attach the opolar to one of the rear vents, in theory, it should pull the air out of the laptop chassis at a faster rate.

I've got two opolar fans like this for my old Lenovo y510p. They work by pulling hot air out of exhaust fans, rather than pushing air in to the intake. They will work as long as the clips fit around the exhaust port. I use them in combination with a bottom fan cooling pad and my temperatures drop by up to 15 C in the winter.
I will see if they fit on my 7577 when it comes in (possibly today).

Tested the opolar fans, and they do not fit on the rear of the laptop. There are two spring clips that will not fit in between the screen and the keyboard frame to clamp on top of the rear vent. You might be able to get away without using the clips, but you wouldn't quite get the same amount of cooling from them.
Cheers'
