AM06 Pro Extra Cooling Hack
Posted: Sun Feb 04, 2024 1:38 pm
I've modded my AM06 Pro with an extra fan rotating (slowly) on the top of the PC.
The fan, underpowered via USB with DC5V instead of DC12V, is quite silent and can be purchased for less than 5€ at Amazon.
A bit of drilling is required to make vents thru the top cover of the mini PC right under the fan (which must PUSH the air downward).
A temperature decrease of approximately -8°C to -10°C (see pics below) is obtained when the PC is blown by this extra fan compared to a configuration without it.
