    Tomorrow, I am gonna add a cooling fan to my old Android box, if I have the time. It has this kind of heat sink:-

    Any ideas if I should do inlet or outlet on these? Internet is divided.

    what does the enclosure look like?

    You mean the case of the Android box?

    yeah, I think that would decide on the inlet/outlet decision

    As for the case itself, it is much like any other slim Android boxes. But, the challenge is that the heat sink is placed upside down such that the pronged pins face downward. It does have the space to fit a 40x40x15mm fan inside it.

    Then I think inlet would probably be a little cooler if it hits that heatsink but probably only talking about a couple/few degrees if you're actually making the air move around. Unless you're close to thermal throttling or are, those few degrees don't make any real world difference. Though if you can, I say run it one way for a few days, try it the otherway.

    Sure. Will have to try that and see which way gives me better performance.

    honestly, anything works, android boxes aren't designed to be that hotter anyway unless you are doing some overclocking.

    Nah, I am gonna run Jellyfin on Docker and when it's transcoding, it can get hot. I can disable transcoding, but, if someone plays with the unofficial client, I want it to be able to handle that.

    Docker is something I still want to give a try. Now that I have won a 1GB VPS in dallas, I am going to play around with setting up docker to use that to help setup and deploy applications and environments. I also have been wanting to learn some ansible in conjuction with that. I am honsety not too familiar with either so there may be some overlap in the capabilties of the 2. Now that I have the spare 1GB vps I have won, I can practice some more remote deploy ment strategies and other things to ease my process when I do need to scale out or bring up another instance somewhere. Tools these days almost make things too easy so I should learn to start using them

    I started using Docker only recently. As per my understanding, it's kinda like mini-VMs with their own chroot like environment. But, they don't take up a lot of resources like full blown VMs.

    Correction not VMs but containers, it's same like python virtualenv, but different use cases, virtualenv can encapsulate python dependencies only while docker can for the entire OS. Docker is similar to lxc if you ask me both for the containers.

    Yup especially with the 10w TDP n5105 looks promising and the best part i can upgrade the parts later on(i believe i can)

    How much would that cost in Nehru Place? Or, is it better to get one online?

    The one i am seeing online is giving me much better value(more if you have the cashback card), it's currently priced at 11K with 1K discount on BF coupon and 5% cashback with cashback card(i am looking for this one).

    Can you share the link?

    It's praho 2.1, but still do your research before buying anything. There might be something cheaper than that.

    haven't heard of the brand though. Got any experience with that?

    It's a brand of selligion, and it's reviews on amazon are quite good, i was earlier looking for ITX celeron SBC but they were out of stock everywhere, but then this popped up. The design looks kinda similar to skullsaints and it looks like OEM product so can't say much. I haven't purchased one by myself as i am torn between getting lenovo tiny i5-8th gen and praho 2.1. Both almost at same price point while one is refurbished and hogs about 45w and other being new with just 10w tdp.

    Ah just checked em out. They are an Indian brand. Guess they initially made products to make PCs accessible to more people.
    Gonna keep this brand in mind next time out looking for a mini PC.

    THE CHEF OUT OF HIS KITCHEN AFTER AN YEAR! SURPRISE!

  • BlazinDimesBlazinDimes Member

    Hey guys! Posting from my old phone. I am without a computer for the first time in my entire life, but I have been gifted enough parts to hopefully build one so I can join in. Happy Thanksgiving!

    Rumour has it that the Chef was on a trip this whole year looking for the best flash sale and GA recipes. He has returned successfully and is now ready to share his wisdom through GAs and unbeatable flash sales. Let's welcome him with both hands!
