A630 socket connection solutions

Topic starter

I’ve read and heard about the socket loosing its grip after some time causing issues. Any solutions to fasten it better? Someone mentioned hot glue. I’ve also read about cooling issues and the fan being to big to close the top of the Amiga, but maybe rev 3 adressed that?

HI!

We are not aware of any issues with it coming off or not been told, have you any links where this has been mentioned? 

 

Thanks!

It’s mentioned in this video and also confirmed by other users in the comments…both the card popping out, the heat problems and the problems closing the Amiga top part of the case.

It’s mentioned in other videos as well in the comment sections. Also mentioned in forums regarding the heating problem.

Seems like a powerful card, but I’m concerned about the socket loosing its grip, the heating and not being able to close the case entirely. Maybe I’m too concerned.

@steveretropassion-co-uk here’s another one which had heat issues. Solved by changing fan voltage.
