danwinslow Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Anyone have any product recommendations for a good cooling unit on a CT60E? Thanks Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oracle_jedi Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Did you get an answer Dan? I am preparing to install my CT60e and I cannot even figure out if the 2-pin header next to C45 is for the cooling fan, which side is positive/negative, and if it is 5V, 12V or something else.

mikro Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 You can go for https://www.atari-forum.com/viewtopic.php?p=381588#p381588 but it's quite pricey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oracle_jedi Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 I ended up going with this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N5M94NT?ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details&th=1 And then replaced the fan with a 40mm x 10mm Noctua silent fan. It was a simple swap out/screw in replacement. The heat sink comes with an adhesive pad but I ended up using some artic silver thermal paste that once it dried had bonded to the top of the CPU quite well. The unit has been running without an issue so far, but I am at stock 66Mhz and have not tried any overclocking. For the benefit of anyone else looking to install a CT60e, the two pins next to C45 on the last CT60e revision are indeed 12V/GND for a fan. The 12V pin is closest to the cap.
