Laptops are designed to function within a certain thermal envelope as they are from the factory. There is no need to get a laptop cooler in most cases. That heat is normal. In any case, the laptop coolers that are common do little to help the actual laptop internals, they only blow air onto the plastic and cool the bottom of the plastic body. They do more to keep your desk or your lap cool than the inside of your laptop.

The only thing that would really help is a fan that is setup to hook into your laptop's existing exhaust system.
