Sheilding on/off

[Retrofan]

Judging by your car, you seem to enjoy attaching unnecessary things.

Some people call things as unnecessary, others have Amigas and Showroom Beetles... but I like rusty Beetles too :lol:
 
Any other to join the list :rtfm:  ?

if everything is done correctly the sheilding can remain in place as i found image and also sound noise is reduce. but what some users are forgetting is if you add heatsink (let say a GFX card) if you ground the heatsink image seems a little bit sharper as lease here on my system.

the same appiles here too on my test sound card,background noise is reduced.

if you have hot componets you could try somekind of link to the sheilding,using it as a heatsink which iv seen one user here on this site has already done.

Are you saying this Thread? http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=37417 Now the photos are gone, but I remember he made an aluminium trapdoor that was touching the cpu of the accelerator, and he joined a car battery cable or something similar between the trapdoor and the sheilding or the keyboard, didn't he?

Perhaps't that's why I listen AmigaAmp so well....

My idea is good, but it has a problem: the accelerator is outside the sheilding, so you have to cool it with it's own fan. In fact, if you want the wind-tunnel effect but don't want the sheilding you could do like this:
You put a fan where the RF modulator was,

but as I see it you have to close the grill in the upper part of the Amiga so the air only could go out for example with holes on the trapdoor.
Something similar to this:


 
You could do the same with the sheilding on with the fan on the rf place, and only you would have to cover the upper part of the sheilding leaving a place somewhere to let the air going out. With this way I believe I should have the coolest Indivision of all.

@ Retrofan

Don't take this the wrong way... but your obsessed and totally nuts ...

I thought I was a bamstick and obsessive about my miggies, but WHY this crusade to fit a fan to a desktop A1200

I can't quite get my head round why your going to all this bother for something that doesn't need done in the first place... :confused:

WHY...

[Retrofan]

Just because I've been told the Indivision gets very hot and I've been keeping the sheilding on even with an internal cd and a subway. I've heard the flicker fixer can be put with the sheilding, and I won't like to take it out now, but don't want to fry the Scandoubler.

I see now... didn't realize you were going to fit the Indivision, the fan may help, but I'd still get rid of the shielding it only real purpose was because of the laws regarding radio interference, anyway best of luck with whatever you decide...
