[mythtv-users] pvr250-rev runs hot, is version 2 cooler?

[Keith C]

Yeah, I have a continuing problem with back to back recordings.  Pretty
sure it is heat related.  Unfortunately, I have no spare PCI slots for a
cooler.  I've got 4 new fans coming tomorrow  - 3 enermax thermals for
the case and a glacialtech CPU cooler.  Hopefully my box will get both
more quiet and cooler.
