The Joggler has a terrible heatsink. It is plastic, no I'm not kidding you. There is a metal stand at the back that the thermal transfer pad connects to, but even that is too little, too late. It's sufficient for the openpeak main uses running a cut down linux and flash UI, but hardly enough to run a full ubuntu stack on. Thermal throttling isn't fun, so steps have to be taken to mitigate that. Inspired by BusErrors Heatsink Mod, I went and bought myself a heatsink kit from Maplin, and broke out my dremel. Alas my efforts weren't quite as tidy as this:  As you can see... More pictures as I take them... |
