Zaazu Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Hey guys, I'm in the process of putting a computer inside a SNES case. This is my motherboard http://www.zotacusa.com/zotac-ion-itx-a-series-ionitx-a-u.html Space is very limited and I'm having to wrap a cable around the big metal heatsink in order for it to fit. My question is... Is this dangerous in any way? The cable isnt touching the fan.
Mystro183 Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 If the cable were to melt and expose the wire then yes that would be very bad.
Zaazu Posted June 8, 2013 Author Posted June 8, 2013 the heatsink gets warm, not hot, so cable melting shouldnt be an issue
emb Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 If its a small cable then it should not be an issue. The heat syncs rely on open surface area to help transfer heat. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 2 %5BSIGPIC%5D[/sIGPIC] Download HyperSpin Tools and check out my MAME cabinet
