Overheating

Post by jwfurness » July 20th, 2015, 12:03 pm

I've been experiencing consistent system freezing/crashing on my retron5 when playing Genesis games. Tried downgrading to 2.1 (games totally unresponsive) and updating to 2.3 beta (Genesis games play again). I notice that the back of my system gets very warm after about 30 minutes of use and am surmising that it's an overheating issue causing the lock-up. The system is in a well ventilated area.

Anybody else's retron5 run really hot? It doesn't seem like there's enough going on in that box to be generating much heat.
