I added an active cooling system driven by the on board fan connector. It is a large heat sink that spans a number of the on board chips and has fins and a fan. Somehow I ended up jamming the pins and one got bent out of line so I had to try to straighten it under a microscope which went OK but I am about to do a test. Despite the pin being bent, the fan was still coming on, it just wasn't self modulating, it was just on 100%. We'll see how it goes post repair. I am hoping at a minimum the fan still spins when I test it, stay tuned.
