Hello,
What is the normal temperature for running xbmc on a shuttle xs35gt? I have been using it since a bit more than a year (warranty just expired ) without any problems. Since a couple of days, it starts to skip frames after a while, I think because of overheating. Checking 'sensors' output results in 96.0 C (see below). Is it too high for an ION system? Do you know what I could try to reduce it? I opened the case, but didn't see anything unusual: the system is fanless so there is no dust. Is it worth trying to unscrew the heatsinks to check if there is dust between them and the cpu?
Thanks in advance for an answer.
