Changing heatsink on the TerribleFire 1260 in my Amiga 1200

Posted on by
TerribleFire 1260 with heatsinks. A taller/longer heatsink wont fit on the 060 with the case closed.

I just updated the heatsink on one of the CPLDs on the TerribleFire 1260 in my Amiga 1200.

The modified heatsink on the TerribleFire1260.

The heatsink I used was modified so that the compact flash adapter I had could be fitted on the TF1260. And it was so ugly.

The new compact flash adapter doi not need a modified heatsink on the CPLD closest to it.

Not that I would see the heatsink when I used the computer. But it still bothered me. So I ordered a new heatsink and installed it instead.

Ahhh… much better. The more heatsinks, the better!

And tadaaa suddenly my Amiga 1200 is dangerously close to being finished!
