Hey guys,
So im getting very sick of my Xenon Jtag overheating all the time . I dont really have enough money to upgrade atm, but what i do have is a broken jasper sitting round doing nothing. So i thought that if i took off the Gpu/Cpu heatsinks and put them on my xenon it would cool it down? Is this true? Would this be a good method to lower the temp of the xenon?

Thanks

the heatsinks really wouldn't do anything as far as i can think of but it MIGHT have some effect.... it's more of how the board is structured and air flow...

Yeah, try to take ANYTHING you can off of the board that would help your xenon such as: heatsinks, screws, nuts, bolts, etc.

Do not swap the heat sinks, my friend did it and it bends the whole board and it now has 3 rings and 2 rings after 2 mins the heat sinks barley touch the cpu gpu
