There are indeed two types of bpppc. The sloweer ones like mine have full size ppc and yu can see all the legs round the cpu under the sink. on the faster ones the ppc cpu is hlave the size only takeing up the centre of the cpu area, can even see the soldering pads where the full size cpu could go.
As too heat..well i noticed the fan wasnt working the other day, only been on 2-3 mins and the ppc sink was quite hot so either ppc is burning up or the thermal adhesive is doing its job
as too the crashes...well they happen totaly randomaly for me, i suspect bad psu so am going to try a replacement.
