This is unnecessary unless you greatly overclock. We are not doing that nor is it necessary to overclock so the heatsink would not be needed. You could add it if you want. It wouldn't hurt anything to add it and in high heat environments it might be a good thing. <br id="FontBreak"></font><br><b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">73 Doug</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">WA3DSP</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">http://www.crompton.com/hamradio</font></b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><br><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Sat, 2 May 2015 08:48:32 -0400<br>From: N1XBM@amsat.org<br>To: arm-allstar@hamvoip.org<br>Subject: [arm-allstar] Heatsink<br><br><p dir="ltr">What's the deal with the little hest sink that comes with the RPI2? It looks like it will not fit in my case? It might fit on the Broadcom chip offset. I think it goes on the smaller IC.</p>
