It is well known that gamers and performance enthusiasts are infamous for their voracious appetite for the latest and most powerful hardware. Some of these customers prefer desktops, as they are easily upgradeable and more expandable, but there are also those that spare no dime if it means they can play anytime and anywhere. These consumers usually buy gaming notebooks, which often rival all but the most capable desktops in terms of performance. To make sure that these end-users can play in style and comfort, Cooler Master has come out with its CM Storm SF19 gaming notebook stand.

Hardware makers and PC vendors, while they strive to address the entire market with their respective product lines, usually have a special product family aimed at catering to the needs of this market segment that is among the main responsible for advancements in consumer-aimed technology.

While companies like Intel, AMD, NVIDIA and their partners make the hardware, especially cutting-edge graphics cards and processors, others develop products that complement or enhance the experience. Cooler Master is one such company and its latest product in the CM Storm line will make sure that notebooks stay cool and comfortable, ensuring that the gaming experience is unaffected.

The CM Storm SF19 is a gaming notebook stand that works with laptops of up to 19 inches. Gaming notebooks aren't known for their ultra-low temperatures and Cooler Master aims to make up for that through the use of two 140mm fans. Mounting a 200mm fan is also possible and the spinners even come with manual fan speed control and an LED with On/Off function. Not only that, but the stand even boasts four USB 2.0 ports and small holes that facilitate cable management.

The product was on show at CeBIT, where it was spotted by Fudzilla. It will become available sometime around the time of Computex and will carry a price tag of less than 50 Euro.
