I've checked temperature of my SSD M.2 950 pro in my NFC S4 mini, in vertical stand.
After OS boot : 48°C (room @20°C)
After checking Evil with in (60Go) + Pillars of eternity (19go) folder in steam : 59°C
After benchmark in magician : 62°C
After 5 min cooling down : 57°C
We are still far away from throttling limit of 70°C.
So, in vertical stand, NFC S4 mini is M.2 SSD friendly, in vertical stand..
It's worth to highlight that as others SFF could struggle on cooling M.2 SSD
Hello Marc! I had a question about the cpu cooler. Did you compare the original idcooling fan to the noctua? And how much room is to spare currently between the case and the cooler.In steam you have option to check local file..that "checking game".
I'll add one case : during gaming session : 64°C R9 Nano is heating all chassis metal, that's why..but it's still ok..
You have managed it so far!I love smashing as much hardware into a teeny space
No, just vertical orientation of the case. I would say that m.2 ssd is almost at fresh air directlyMarcParis, have you used thermal pads with your M.2 950 at all?
