"Just put a heatsink on the CPU."

Ever had any problems without it?

The cpu throttles when it gets too hot. Won't cause damage to not have it, but will slow it down.

Right, that chip could never run at 100% CPU load for more than a fraction of a minute; after that it starts slowing the clock. Seems to me like it was meant to run with a heatsink on.

Either that or it was meant for outdoors operation in arctic regions.
