@ddash The fan is just sitting on top of the case, mostly centered as the turbine opening is slightly smaller than the case itself.
The duct shoots air horizontally in the general direction of another of a LibreComputer Lepotate. I take that as a bonus.
No, the highest temperature I have ever recorded was 76°C. Without fan, and using thermal pads to connect the case to components.
But I hate high numbers, excessive heat already shortened a Pi lifetime here, since then I am very cautious about that.
@lka1988 @Lem453 Primarily a frontend tool designed to make your life easier, torsion.org/borgmatic , but I tend to avoid macros, frontend scripts, or even GUIs like this. They may obscure Borg-specific configuration details that, hypothetically, could one day hinder your restoration process.
Update: I have borrowed a Nuc N150 from a colleague, he swapped it for a tower desktop (not powerful enough for gaming, I don’t care about gaming). I may very well end up buying it from him for cheap.
Else I have a few used Lenovo M910q with i7 in the 230€ range on eBay, that will do
Wow I do need an upgrade from the pi4 🤯
@Creat When I said I had one Pi lifetime that was shortened it was a way of saying yes, it died from 24/7 high load no fan overheating. Now it just boot and freezes after a couple of minutes.
Then, yes, back in the days when overclocking and over powering was a thing, CPU actually died from all that, I changed a few for customers that didn’t know better. How ironic I did that to myself years later with little arm boards, isn’t it?
