CD32 internal fan?

[F0LLETT]

I have to ask why?

Seems pointless to me. There is no way it would generate enough heat to cause any issues.
I ran my ACA1220 clocked at 50MHz for 8 years, 8 hours a day. I also had stock trapdoor cover.
It was never unstable or crashed once. Unless its running at 60 -70 degs, I don't see point.

SX32, would also not throttle CPU. Its set to one speed and runs at that speed all the time.
So the heat generated will not change that much. Where as the ACA1220 could throttle cpu using a governor.
I never saw any point and just ran it as full speed all the time.

Why what? This isn’t SX32, this is SX32 Pro, 50MHz 68030 (and optionally 68882), I got one too and it does get warm, especially with spinning disk installed.

Not really an answer, as 50 Deg to the human hand can feel warm / hot. Still doesn't mean it needs a fan.
My CD32 gets warm as you put it, but its stable and runs fine.

When I said throttle I meant a system wide throttling that Proxima III puts an Amiga through. It's not really the CPU that gets pushed in that game it's the custom chips.The CD32 grill is tiny compared to an A1200 and with a spinning drive an 030 sysyem can get hot enough to cause the HD to shutdown!

Think its time for a new HDD, maybe switch to CF.
Have to say, never heard of, or seen a case where a HDD just shuts down due to heat.
