Interesting. I would have never thought of doing that.

Hmm, the SID chip runs hot. I've always wondered what its running temperature is. What is the running temperature of the power transistor?

Yes, 40 degrees C. is a good starting point for the fan.

Excellent news! (Especially with the noise level being lower than the floppy drive)
