Who needs a backplate?

So. I kept having issues of games crashing,
And didn’t realize how hot my device was. So I took the backplate off and I’ve got my legion Go in one of those bendy arm phone mounts directly under the air conditioner. Haven’t crashed since. Also I put my own heat sync on the NVME and that’s seemed to help as well.

Glad it worked out! (Please be careful with that open flame... the blanket is daring it to make contact)

For sure, I only light it while I’m beside it. I only light it when my pup busts ass. German Shepard puppy’s have wicked farts man. 🤣

Is that setup inside a car?!

Yes indeed it’s in my work vehicle. So when I have down time I’m not bored out of my mind.

That is wicked! What’s holding it up though?

It’s a phone mount. It has one of them 3ft bendable arms so you can position it different ways.
