Peter has made a comment (in ql-developers) about the Q40 heatsink. I guess he won't say it here, so here it is: -------------------------------------------- since I recently had requests wether or not the CPU on the Q40 could become too hot in long term operation, a short clarification:
The Q40 was designed to operate without CPU fan. This is well calculated in theory and tested in practice. The heatsink provided by Qbranch is sufficient to run the Q40 continuosly without any instabilities or damage to the CPU, as long as the board is in a standard case (like Minitower) under room temperature conditions. -- QBBS (QL fido BBS 2:252/67) +44(0)1442-828255 tony@<surname>.co.uk http://www.firshman.co.uk Voice: +44(0)1442-828254 Fax: +44(0)1442-828255 TF Services, 29 Longfield Road, TRING, Herts, HP23 4DG
