The mainboard becomes too hot around an hour.

For the encapsulated module, I am a bit worried about the heat loss.

It comes directly that I should drill some holes in the case.

But it may compromise the integrity of the mainboard case causes failure in dustproof.

@yong, @hal, would it be possible to add to your GitHub repo the .stl files for the mainboard case? it could be possible to create a window to add a small heatsink on the cpu, which could line up with the opening at the back.

even play cavestory won’t last long .

Even external power input won’t provide enough power to the gameshell (runs out of battery for a long run).
