![]() I know more about this stuff than I care to admit. I'm a heat exchanger guru in my full time (well, now part time) job. All you'll do is raise the average cabinet temperature and get dust and dirt all over your chassis. So I disagree with the person who told you to blow air on the chassis. You still have heat flowing out the top by natural convection. The player takes the role of a paperboy who. The hole is bigger.Ī top mounted fan (since heat rises) helps get the heat out.īlowing a fan on the chassis will just raise the entire game's temperature because it distributes that heat and mixes it with the rest of the cabinet air. Paperboy is an arcade action game developed and published by Atari Games and Midway Games, and released in 1985. The picture that andrewb provided of the Space Duel in his link looks right. Ideally, you have to have a hole as big as the fan blades, or you'll get blade stall. ![]() Then again, I bought some appropriate replacements for a Mario Carts that were 120 vac and were very quiet. On mobile phones and Iphone use the gameplay control buttons shown on your screen (only on mobile) to play and start the game. On a computer you can click the Zoom to expand the game to a larger size. I've had some (120 v Radio Shack fan) that sounded loud. Instructions: Click on the game window and hit the ENTER key to start Paper Boy (you might have to hit start twice). There are various fans available in DC and AC models. As it rises, it draws in cooler air from the bottom of the cabinet or through the vent hole on the back door. Natural convection for heat transfer works just fine for most stuff. Not that noise is going to be a huge factor with a small 12V DC fan anyway, but if there were any, it would get removed by the AR. That supply is unregulated coming from the brick, so there's already noise on it (from the rectifier), and it gets regulated and cleaned up by the AR board. Here's a good example of someone who did it nicely:Īlso, you're fine running a 12V fan off of the 10.3V DC supply. I recommend this exhaust setup to people I refurb vector games for, as they're even more susceptible to heat. And it's better to get heat out of the cabinet, versus a fan inside the cab, that mostly just blows the hot air around. Doing it this way will cool *everything* inside the cab (AR, game board, power brick), not just individual parts. You can help this greatly by adding a fan, to help pull the heat up and out the top. (Or out the back.)Ītari cabs were designed with mostly convective cooling, meaning there are vents at the bottom and the top of the cab, and the natural air current caused by heat rising will push heat out the top, and draw cool air in through the bottom vent. If you want to add a fan, a better solution is to add an exhaust fan at the top of the cab, blowing up and out the top. ![]()
