Really 60°C isn't all that hot. I've seen benchmarks with stock heatsinks running an app like Nero and running around 55°C so there ya go... Now if you start getting up around 75-80ish °C then I'd be worried!!

Those are the temps i'm expecting to hit this week but we shall see.

Today it was about 85F out and sunny and my carputer almost reached 70C so i might be OK if i don't go anywhere where its like 100F outside

Just looks beautiful bxsteez! Love it!

Looking really good.... Isnt it hard to hit certain buttons on the screen though with it being so resessed? I cant wait till I get my screen back, still waiting for the repairs on it. I hate that Lilliput EBY701's have a self destruct button.

I can't find it now but there was a CF plugin I stumbled on that had buttons to "Launch Rockets" and "Self Destruct". While the buttons did nothing they just looked cool. /offtopic

LMFAO, no but I'm being serious.... It has a self destruct button. If you use 800x600 and you accidentally hit the auto adjust button, you fry a chip inside the screen and can no longer use 800x600, you can only use 800x480. My graphics card will not display 800x480 natively and the ATI drivers are a f&*kin mess. You install them and the whole system runs like $h!+. Plus the fact that my install will have 5 total EBY701s and 2 headrest Lilliputs, which I think use the same insides as the EBY701, trying to get them to run different resolutions would have sucked. So I got p!$$ed, sent it back to my vendor and its been almost a month now. As a precaution, I removed all the auto adjust buttons from the 2 screens I have left. Once I buy the other 4 screens, thats the first thing thats coming out. I wonder if other Lilliput models do that?

That would be one of the first Fusion Brain skins I made

And as to the lilliput self destruct, it sadly is true. And it is not just for 800x600, it is 640x480 and 1024x768 as well. I am not sure why, but if you use auto-adjust there is a slight chance that one time you burn out that resolution forever. Only solution is to replace the driver chip or use a different resolution.

That must be why they are taking so long sending me back the screen. i think they are simply trying to repair the chip, rather then just install a new complete board. We should all start a petition to Lilliput to fix this issue.

I don't really have any issues with pressing buttons. I think i got use to it though. I vaguely remember having issues when i first installed it but now its really easy.

Either way, it looks good. You still havent cleaned the finger prints off the screen though, lol..........

Bxsteez · 06-18-2009, 10:55 AM
