Are any of you running extra fans on yours? some of the components could burn and catch on fire according to people. We have to figure out how to prevent this.It looks like only the controller board, so maybe we each should run extra fans on them if not the whole unit. Please speak as to how you, personally are going to prevent this - like extra fans or what? Is there a heatsink that I could put on top of the components or what? http://imgur.com/a/HKLWDhttp://imgur.com/a/hyA3ahttp://imgur.com/2UZuUzHfires? I've only heard of the one burnt component ie flash/smoke is all....anyway just heard of the 1 board issue I think? with a metal case and the cover on away from clutter I'd suspect most of us will be fine imho..now a case less/open unit not so sure?

Wouldn't an open case be better for heat if not also airflow? I think I should open my case and put a big fan running on it |

and should you use .93 or .90 firmware?
