Let me give you some advice I have said before.
All you people with Blizzard boards cool them down.
Ground yourself first and with your machine running touch the top of the chips real carefull like. Anything that scorches your fingers put a heatsink on it. Heat will prematurely kill your Cyberstorm cards. I got heat sinks on Mach chips that will blister skin. I ripped off the cheap low profile heatsink on my PPC and put one on it made for a graphics card put the same one on my 060. Thermal adhesive works great for this.
Funny as it sounds try putting a heat sink on the SCSI chip. I got a massive increase in speed simply by mounting a heatsink on the symbios chip. Fixed my SCSI lock ups I used to have with my scanner too. According to SYSSpeed I now get 9.8 megs a second transfers off my IBM SCSI 2 hardrives. before all I got was 2.5 megs a second.
I wonder how many Amiga users live with lack luster speed because Phase V/DCE decided to save a few Cents. Not to mention premature failures from blown mach chips becuase they over heated and died.
I know it's too late for many here but for any survivors please save your boards thirty buck worth of heatsinks and fans are well worth it.
