[vox-tech] Safe to run 486dx2 w/o fan?

[Alexion, John]

Wouldn't recommend doing that. Unless you want to Potentially Loose your
Processor/motherboard. Spend <10$ for the Fan. Those Processors run @ 5
Volts. And even though they do not dissipate as much heat as the newer ones,
I would be safe than sorry.




Thank You,
John Alexion

I just took the fan off my 486DX2 66 tu use on my gfx card (the card's fan 
developed an extreamly annoying buzz)

Think the 486 will fry if I just slap some thermal grease and a heatsink on 
it?

(I tried posting this earlier from the wrong address. *sigh*)
