Title: Turbo Duo Question
Post by: psychobear on December 02, 2012, 06:16:12 AM

Never really noticed this until yesterday, when I took the hu card out to play another game the card was warm, also right above the area where the slot is it was warm as well, I had my duo for 4 years now and never noticed it until yesterday... Is this normal?

That's where the heat sinks and regulators are, IIRC. It shouldn't matter what game you are playing though. The PCE CPU and graphics chips produce almost zero heat under any situation.
