Tektronix WE30 and millet box that heat better?

Recently, on the Internet, I saw a lot of users tweet their own TV boxes to watch the video hot. Unlike direct contact products such as computer phones, we rarely touch the TV box when it is in use, so many times the heat problem has not attracted much attention. Today Xiao Bian also gives you a glimpse of the heat dissipation problem of mainstream boxes:

First of all, let everyone talk about the harm caused by the heat source and overheating of the TV box: The heat of the TV box mainly comes from the CPU chip of the box. When we watch high-definition video and play large-scale games, the CPU is in high frequency and high-speed operation. At this time, the resistance inside the CPU will emit a lot of heat, which is the culprit leading to overheating of the TV box. What's more, if the TV box is overheated or it cannot be cooled for a long time, the system will be unresponsive due to overheating of the box. The blue screen of the TV will flash back and even directly affect the service life of the motherboard.

We know that there is a fan for computer cooling. Because the TV box has a small size, it is impossible to install a fan. Now that the mainstream TV boxes use a three-dimensional package design, this is not conducive to the rapid distribution of heat, and the box is naturally hot! So how do mainstream TV box manufacturers solve this problem? Xiao Bian selected the following two mainstream TV boxes for comparative analysis:

Taijie WEBOX WE30 VS Millet Box Plus

The first paragraph: Taijie WEBOX WE30 (metal heat conduction + fan heat dissipation)

Taijie WEBOX WE30 follows the traditional round design of the Tate Box, which is lighter than the previous boxes. The black and white contrast is more eye-catching. Users who are familiar with Tatebox may know the iconic color breathing lamp of Tate Box, and add new design elements to Tektronix's new flagship WE30 Breathing Lamp. Fan-shaped vent holes are added to the waistline position. Become a more concise square.

In fact, Tage WE30 uses two methods to accumulate heat for cooling. The bottom of the box has a metal layer to conduct heat. In the box's waist position, it has innovatively added up to 70 heat dissipation holes for internal and external air exchange and heat dissipation. In the actual test, this cooling method of the Tate box also achieved certain results. When running high-definition video and games, the internal temperature of the box remains at an ideally controllable state below 50°C.

Second paragraph: millet box enhanced version (metal heat conduction)

Anyone who wants to buy a box or has already purchased a millet box knows that the work of the millet box can be regarded as an example of the industry. The black matte material is combined with an almost one-piece full-wrapped design. Even the disassembled machine can find the inside of the fuselage. The chip's position is well-ordered. Then the question is, how does the heat dissipation of the millet box be handled? To disassemble the mainboard, we found that a heavy metal thermal plate was placed under the main board, which means that the enhanced version of the millet box uses a metal thermal conduction method to complete the heat dissipation.

If the millet box body can enlarge a certain size, it may be that this metal conduction heat dissipation method can also play a certain role, the problem is that the millet box body is small, space utilization is too high, resulting in the heat concentration of the millet box and can not Loss, and then the millet box has been high fever is not refundable. When running a large-scale game, the maximum body temperature reached 69 °C, this temperature Xiaobian I only saw on some laptops with poor heat dissipation, Xiao Bian did not return to the room until 2 hours and 40 minutes after the shutdown. The normal temperature shows that the millet box needs to be optimized for heat dissipation.

Speaking of the two main TV box cooling methods, let's talk about the cooling methods of some domestic OEM box manufacturers. In fact, look at the appearance to know, usually the body shell must be large enough, so that the body inside more material, and then on both sides of the fuselage to open two rows of cooling holes, manufacturing this TV box cooling very powerful illusion! If you did this five years ago, you can still be considered as innovative, but you still do so today. You can only say that you are getting farther and farther from this era!

In the Internet also saw a lot of friends out of the way to cool the TV box, there is an external fan installed, there is a water bag ice, but also directly increase the block metal plate, this method of external intervention to heat but can play Certain role, but if we have already solved this problem when purchasing a box, can we save us a lot of unnecessary trouble?
