Applies to both the Inforce IFC6410 and IFC6410 Plus
Parts needed:
- 1x 28MM CPU HEATSINK
- 1x 5V FAN
- 1x Epoxy (can probably find it cheaper at a local hardware store)
- 1x 2-pin header cable (optional). I cut off the HDD LED connector from an old PC and soldered it to my fan. You could also just wrap it around the 5V and GND pins if you want.
Steps:
- Heatsink only makes connection with the SoC package but it makes a pretty strong connection from the included sticky/thermal pad
- Mix a bit of your quick setting epoxy together
- Apply to bottom of 5V fan with a small toothpick or something. I put a bit on the corners and some on the center
- Let the fan sit for 15-min. Put a stack of quarters on top of the fan or something to apply pressure.
- This is sufficient enough to keep it cool. No need for additional bottom mounted heatsink or chassis mounting.
