Simon,
My 137 runs okay, but yeah, it's a bit hot. I tossed a zalman rc45 (the
little 3-wire inline resistor they shipped with all their fans) into the
line for the little 60mm fan, and it's now bearable (WAF++), but if it's
still not acceptable later, I may look at a pabst or similar supplier of
60mm fans and see if one'll fit. Maybe adding a second fan would help
too .. I forget: is there a header on the board?
Either way, I figure I need to start watching the heat when I slide the
250 into the box under the 350, make sure they don't cook on concurrent
recordings.
