Question Using cooling pad on HP Omen 16

I just bought a HP Omen 16 and I am waiting for it to arrive. I have read tech reviews on it and I have a question.

The HP Omen 16 design, from my understanding, has it's bottom raised by pads, so that air can flow out under the laptop. My question is that if I use a cooling pad on it will it force the air back in the laptop and cause problems with air flow and thus end up not cooling it down?

If it is fine having a cooling pad, should I have a certain arraignment, such as a big fan in the middle and/or 4 fans in the outside?

Also, I don't know if I am over thinking this. Tell me if the cooling pad/laptop is even a problem.


[Edit: spelling correction and additional questions.]

Thanks for your reply. I'm still waiting to get the laptop in a few days. When I get the computer I will have lots of stuff to update, install and bloatware to delete. I will probably have questions then.

Again thanks.
