Description: I like keep my A1200 hardware in the original desktop case but I was very worried about the high temperature of the CPU (Blizzard 1260). So I've installed an external fan just under the 68060... it works great! I've taken the ground and the +12V signals directly from the floppy connector (using two male "faston" connectors).

The only flaw of the project is the 1200 is a bit noysy now. :-( |

| July 17, 2006, 07:21:35 PM @ HellCoder Sorry, I don't understand what do you mean... :-? Actually it already blows air directly to the processor :idea: |
| HellCoder Posts:279 | July 16, 2006, 07:32:47 PM Perhaps you can tilt the fan a little so that it will blow air over the processor instead of in ? |

| July 16, 2006, 08:55:32 AM Some months ago I read here a thread about high temp of 68060. I remember that there were various '060 releases. Some are cool, other become hot. The mine is very hot :madashell: |
