Won't clear the keyboard, at least not on a TF1260.

Re: TF1260 stuff
Has anyone tried using copper tape to connect between the '060 and the base of the keyboard? Use the keyboard itself as a giant heatsink?
Alternatively, if copper tape isn't thermally conductive enough, how about some heatpipes? They're available from AliExpress for not many $$$.

There is proper carbon thermal sheet, I think Samsung make it. Its 4x more conductive than copper.

Re: TF1260 stuff
Sure, you need to modify it in a tight spot. I have used a file to angle one down (like the pictures of the Warp 1260 show), then sprayed it again with some stove matt black. Making a jig to hold it securely and then to apply a belt sander would make a nicer, flatter job. Obviously this is before you attach it
Re: TF1260 stuff
I made some slip-on keyboard risers (sorry pics are from A500 version). You can't raise the A1200 keyboard much before the case won't close.
It just changes the angle slightly to gain a bit more clearance to the CPU.
I think I need to ZIP the .STL as it won't let me attach it.
@Cheshire Noir this was discussed some time ago, with one idea being a soft conductive foam pad. To use keyboard plate as heat sink.
Feeling how cool a Rev 6 runs I have just heatsinked the CPLDs and a fan seems to work well moving the hot air away from where it is being generated (right to left).
I did not bother running my AMIGA a few weeks or so ago when we had that high 20oC heat.

Yes zip. Also we have a STL section here https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=62

Yep, I totally get it and agree.

The daft bit is we know exactly who this is just by looking at the card
