Laser: Do you have a bad stutter?

;-)

I feel a little uneasy about being able to feel the heat of my '060 through the SIMM, the air, the trapdoor cover, some more air and half an inch of wood.

Can anyone reccomend some sort of silent heatpipe/cooler for A1200 desktops?

I've seen some copper memory module coolers in a local shop but not for 72-pin SIMMs. It'd be interesting just to get some sort of thermometer device in there just to keep an eye on temperatures - particularly with a PPC/BVision combo.

Anyone transplanted an A1200 into an A500?

:-D

I wonder if the old FPM uses more juice or creates more heat than the newer slimline EDO...

It's probably best to keep to a single SIMM if you want to keep power consumption/heat down and speed up.

The Blizzard cards throttle to 70ns if two SIMMs are used on the main board and on the SCSI card. Not sure about the PPC cards with integrated SCSI (do they have 2 slots?)
