New layout incorporating active memory cooling via a 80mm x 25mm Quiet Fan running at 2000RPM
Ive dropped the graphics card to the lower PCI-e lane to stop it dumping hot exhaust air onto my NB fan.
Overall temp improvements:
NB Temp: original 50°C now running at 45°C (Under 100% CPU load) Figure taken from Smartguardian
5°C overall temperature improvement (not too bad)
BH-5 Memory: original without fan 50°C now running at 38°C (after 10 loops of memtest) Temperature verified using a thermocouple accurate to +/- 2°C which has been inserted between heatspreader and PCB at the fan dead spot.
12°C overall improvement (excellent IMO)
