Just got a clone GDEMU -What are these?

Post by redjeff76 »

Hi,

I just received my clone v5.20 GDEMU in the mail and these 2 things came with it. Where do I attach these? They each have 2 sided sticker stuff on the bottom of them. Can anyone perhaps show me a picture of where to attach these?

They are heat sinks. They go on the chips. Mine didn't come with those however. There's probably two chips on the GDEMU the same size as those heatsinks that you can stick those to.

Lol no idea why they sold some with heatsinks, the GDEMU doesn't get hot even after several hours.

The purpose is to hide that clones substitute FPGA chips, and fool the buyer into thinking it solves the heat problem.
