No, he needs cooling fins!!

Some say shaving his back before attaching the heatsink helps dissipate the heat. Others swear by "water cooling", where you immerse the little creature in a cool solution and that dissipates the heat.

Both methods need good temp monitoring, and that's where the temp probe comes in. Err, I won't mention where it's placed (this is a family site after all ), but correct insertion is very important.

There is a good thread that details many mods to o/clock hamsters. Do you need help finding it, chip?

Cheers
Mick

Replace your Intel Hamster Model C with an AMD Guinea Pig FX for improved peak wheel rotation speed.
