    Hardware Switch overheats as fan does not spin, but the fan works in another Switch

    SOLVED. I was told it may be a diode problem I had a look on YouTube about the Switch and diodes and found a film to locate the diode, followed his instructions and removed it I didn’t even have to heat it up, it came off with tweezers. Now the fan spins as normal and all is good. Best Sean

    Hardware Switch overheats as fan does not spin, but the fan works in another Switch

    I have a Nintendo Switch that is overheating, and I cannot figure out what the problem is. I have changed the fan with a replacement one, but the fan will still not spin, so I got hold of my son’s working Switch and tried the original fan and the new one in it and they work just fine. So, I...

    @Veho, In the end, portable emulation handhelds are the exact same thing.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Mostly in today's age.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Wut.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    The hardware is not much different, in my opinion. It can emulate just about anything without needing a CPU upgrade, aside from a re-design.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Retro handhelds aren't really hiding the fact they're just phones with a D-pad. It's all the same SOC, just with different applications.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Exactly. That's what I'm at least trying to point out.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the high-end SOCs are still expensive so they tend to use older stuff, leftover stock and so on.

    So KTR is asking, will you guys spring for the Snapdragon,
    or should we get some older cheaper chipset.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably thought to themselves that the latter would be the better option. Not only to make them easily affordable to produce and buy, but to retain the same performance to competitors.

    After all, SoC is the same ones used in Android phones that were made for gaming.

    Gen2 is obsolete and probably can get bulk for cheap

    In the same way that a Raspberry Pi costs 30 dollars but a project involving a RPi costs at least $100, CPUs are cheap, everything else is a bitch.

    3d printing and repurposed screens got cheap so we get neat little devices out of last year's tech it's still a neat way to recycle
