I'm finding it hard to discover which HDMI Stick PCs have proper heatsinks. It is well advertised on Geekbuying that the MK808 and MK808B have REAL Heatsinks instead of that cheap-out heatsink tape garbage.
I'm also seeing various mumblings which seem to indicate that users are modding their sticks with homemade heatsinks.
I would like to see information pertaining to heatsinks in this thread. Which sticks have 'em and/or what have you done to create your own.
Scroll down a few images and you will see what I have done. The heatsink came off of a old on-board GPU chip on a intel motherboard. Was like twice as tall, but I cut the fins down. With a fan on it, I left a 1080p Video on for 5 hours and the thing never got more than 80degrees on the temp scale (had a portable temp reader touching the heatsink). The fan was probably blowing a good 1.5k rpm and will probably be that fast when I get it in the case and everything. All the hardware I am using, fan and all, is listed in the thread. Most of the parts came off of a old computer.
