orange Posts:2794 | December 05, 2007, 07:06:44 AM there are different versions of '060 and this one gets very hot. yes it sucks air from the side you see and blows onto heatsink |
AMC258 Posts:877 | December 04, 2007, 10:59:37 PM What the heck are you doing that makes your 060 so hot? Mine runs cooler than any '020 I've ever had. Or is mine a fluke? Also, is that not a biscuit blower? Is not the side we can't see blank? I don't see why there should be air going in or coming out there. It likely goes in the side we see and out the heatsink side, or verse vica. |
orange Posts:2794 | May 11, 2007, 07:39:35 PM sorry no temperatures, I cant get the sensor to stick to CPU ( 'thermal glue' is impossible to find around here) I think its maybe around 30C with cooling, without it its too hot to touch.. |

orange Posts:2794 | September 04, 2006, 07:25:24 AM Well from a shop, its not hard to find it, and there are lot of various other chipset coolers, just look for one that has glue. Unfortunately this fan died for no apparent reason, it just wont start and I used it only slightly. high res. version |

koaftder Posts:2116 | April 29, 2005, 10:26:47 PM wonder what the fpga is setup to do |
orange Posts:2794 | October 23, 2004, 09:50:29 PM Sh*t, I never thought about that. The fan can still be rotated but then its position relative to heatsink would be a little different from the one in instructions. (actually there are two totaly different pictures there, so it probably doesn't really matter). Still, maybe its good to have some air blowing onto daughterboard, it too gets hot, on the edge at least. I'll just keep it like this.. and maybe change it later. Thanks for the tip. |
Lemonty Posts:193 | October 23, 2004, 03:56:45 PM Wouldn't it make more sense to rotate the cooler by a quarter of a turn? It seems to be blowing/sucking against the riser board which makes the cooling less effective. |
