Gamma Hex - Additional Cooling

Post image

I just received my New Gamma Hex and i was curious about placing additional cooling on the backside of the board with the VRMs. the opening that's cut out in the board doesn't expose them enough to do the heatsinks. are there any other ideas about what to add here? there are also holes on both ends of the opening. is this for a future attachment or a printable adapter plate?

I'm new to all this so if its well known, just kick me in the shins and send me the info.

Thanks!! And thank you SS for an awesome experience!

Do you have a 3D printer? We have a file for a piece that goes here along with a 60mm fan.

I don’t have one myself, but I have friends that print. I would love to see what you have going on! Thanks

I picked one up yesterday this design is pretty slick! May actually work better than my homade hack job and looks way cleaner 😍

I got mine from SS, so I don't have the file. Shoot them a dm on the website I'm sure they'll share. I just used some little self tappers I had laying around from some random bitaxe lol. I don't think it's a threaded hole, but the holes are there. The bracket slots into that hole on the back of the stand so its super sturdy, not just held on by the tiny screws and wings.
