Hi,

For cooling down orange pi one I use 26x20x40mm heatsink + additional  2mm alu spacers, connected with thermal epoxy glue...



temp. for now are below 40C.. (with openelec) I will check performance with some pi calculations..

My Zero running Armbian with some CPU intensive tasks (rethinkdb 2.3.6 compilation) commits suicide regularly.
Tonight, I'm trying to install asciinema, and it's heating, but not enough to die.

What kind of heatsink could I install? I am using the OrangePi black box with the extension card, which doesn't help with the heat.
Thanks.

More than a year later, and I have not done much... and the Zero and One are still suffering.
Has anyone found a kit (I love to tinkle, but I sometimes would appreciate being able to -just- work)?
