    [WIP] MK808 New (and more) Heatsink mod + 2 Fans

    Hello everyone.


    I have recently bought my MK808 and i really happy with it. I have installed Ubuntu 12.10 in it, and have found out it became hot. As it has almost no cooling , i dont want to burn it while playing games.
    So i have the plan to Mod it.


    Im going to replace and add more Heatsinks and add 2 fans.
    Here is my sketch of where im going to place heatinks, The heatsinks are 6.5x6x3.5MM in size :
    (it says MK808B, but i bought mk808 O.o, do i have an mk808b?)


    (Red = for sure | Blue = Maybe | The Heatsinks)


    Im adding 2 fans of the size 2x2cm, and they are going to be placed like this : (i have recieved only 1 at this moment, so i have copypasted an 2nd fan)

    ( The fans )
    And then make air-holes like this for the air to come out (sketch):




    As soon as i'm done modding my MK808 i will post an update, but first ! Vacation ! (and waiting for the items to arrive)


    Regards, Tomaat!

    Nice! I'm having a hard time removing the heatsink from the SOC. Don't want to use too much force. Any tips?

      Don't pull or prise the heatsink off. Twist it off.

        I put flat screwdriver between orig. heatsink and pc board. Than I turned it on several places along the board. Heatsink gave up quickly...
