Overheating and thermal shutdown
Why it happens here
Uptown summers push temperatures into the high 90s, and consoles in high-rise cabinets have nowhere to dump heat. Dust from nearby construction clogs fans, and dried thermal paste stops transferring heat. The console shuts down to protect itself.
Our approach
We fully disassemble the console, clean the heatsink and fan with an ultrasonic cleaner, and replace thermal paste with a premium compound. We also test under load to confirm temperatures stay in spec.
