hardware OS4 : Happy new year and an advice from ACube |
| posted by elwood on 3-Jan-2026 19:46:20 (275 reads) |
Dear customers,
We would like to extend our warmest wishes for a joyful and prosperous New Year to everyone. May this 2026 bring us peace, happiness, and exciting news and developments for our beloved Amiga community.
It’s been over 19 years since the introduction of our first board, the Sam440ep. Throughout these years, this little board has proven to be one of the most stable platforms for running AmigaOS 4, and it’s still performing exceptionally well! However, some of its components are starting to show signs of age. In particular, the onboard M9 Graphic Chip may require some additional care due to its age. We strongly advise all our customers who still use the Sam440ep Mini ITX to add a fan to the M9 Graphic Chip as soon as possible. This will help the chip manage the high temperatures and ensure it continues to work without any issues.
We’ve found the perfect fan for this purpose. It’s a 30x30 fan that you can screw directly onto the M9 heatsink. As you can see in the picture below, connect the fan to connector J17. You’ll need to connect the red wire to pin 1 and the black wire to pin 4 (pins 2 and 3 should remain empty).
We all want this wonderful old board to continue to function well until the arrival of our new motherboard.
