a carbon impregnated plastic case frame for holding an electronic device, wherein the case frame comprises a back plate and a side frame;

an internal blower fan directing air across the back of the electronic device, wherein the internal blower fan draws cool air in from intake openings in the lower center of the back of the case and directs it across the back of the electronic device and through a plurality of downward sloping holes on each of the four sides of the carbon fiber rectangular case frame;

an internal rechargeable case battery for powering the internal fan; and

a USB-C port for charging external electronic devices using the internal rechargeable case battery, wherein the intake openings comprise:

a first plurality of round openings arranged in a circular fashion;

a second plurality of round openings arranged in a circular fashion at the periphery of the first plurality of round openings, wherein the second plurality of round openings are larger than the first plurality of round openings; and
