Title: Did KnC originally include fire extinguishers with the Neptunes? Post by: mc162BCT on April 14, 2016, 05:31:23 AM Drunken eBay bid landed me a single Neptune Cube which I decided to use with my old dusted up old Jupiter Board. After the successful flashing of the firmware I'm rather frightened with what I'm seeing as these kind of temperatures if accurate can not possibly be anything but an imminent 911 emergency.
Anyone have any suggestions apart from immediately shutting it off on how I might cool it down? I'm using a the Y splitter and a Platinum EVGA PSU and I'm pretty sure I'm running at "Stock Factory Default" settings nothing "overclocked" as far as I know.

Post by: VirosaGITS on April 14, 2016, 06:52:12 AM My eyes went O.O. I don't recall seeing such high temps either. IIRC there were good Neptunes and some bad replacement batch. Some chips are designed to run hot but, that seem a bit extreme.

If it's on the board, DOWNCLOCK NOW OR BURN. And no, AFAIK they didn't include a fire extinguisher with original sales of the Neptune - but they should have.
