Howdy Folks!
Been trying out various ways of keeping my PPC Cool in the Desktop Amiga, I love using this machine as its so cool having a PPC/BVision setup in an A1200 Desktop but I always worry about heat, obviously its running a lot hotter even than my OC'd Tower Setup!
BVison is fine, I mounted a nice Fan on it and its keeping nice and cool even with the case closed so I'm happy with that but the Power PC Heatsink becomes almost too hot to touch, I'd really like to bring it down to similar temps to my Tower Setup where you can quite happily touch it and not cry to mumma
I bought a HDD Cooler from the other bay (see attached) and fitted it in place of the trapdoor with the A1200 on bigger feet. To be honest its not a very tidy solution but its kind of working. The 060 which used to get pretty hot too is actually nice and cool now but its not doing much if anything for the PPC, thats still hot.
Any other suggestions for cooling or a slimline device I can use?
The other option is to replace the fan on the PPC, any suggestions there?
Cheers!
Steve.
