woody14619 your the kind of person that never gives up and leaving me no choice but to reply to you, i wanted this to drop and carry on in a good way but people like you just will not allow that.

"I want you to do something: Take a second (or a day, or two), think of a project you've worked on, one that had a slight component risk involved maybe."

This is actually boring me now to say but i have no choice so i will say as clear as possible... the project in this case are about15 N900's that i have opened up and inspected including my own, now i think that gives me enough experiance to know what i am talking about don't you think?(have you actually opened one up even).
Theory and actual practice do not always come together (sigh this is boring) so while you can work something out on paper does not mean that in reality it ends that way.
Every single N900 i have seen has the same problem of the usb port and i have managed to repair every one within minutes, that gave me the chance to look at the area around the cpu underside of the m/b.
I actually AGREE and support Titan in OC and the very reason i wanted to try and put something in to help him by making the device safer to run up heat.
As per usual people get the wrong end of the stick (you also) and don't understand where it is going.
Maybe after this post from me it can be laid to rest and maybe if you lot just get on with OC,ing and i will post some pics of something that can be done to make this situation safer in the long term (that was indeed always my aim).
@arbitrabbit how old you think i am?. lol.

PS my wish on this forum is everyone work as a team and help each other.
