That's how they manage to put a flat heatsink, and why it will not work on a KS board unless you drill the heatsink as Andrew said.
That's what I did for my board, but such a thing is not commercially available.
Drilling the wells is not terribly difficult with the right tools, and if you simply drill a hole for each capacitor and the reset button it'll be even easier. You can see what I did and the problems I encountered in this thread:
You could get it done at some local workshop, or maybe ask someone you know. The main point is that you'll need heat conducting pads like Adapteva uses because the HDMI chip is a little bit taller than the ZINQ and Epiphany, so if you just put a flat heatsink on them with thermal grease as I did in my first attempt (golden heatsink) it'll not make good contact.Statistics: Posted by AlbertoGP — Fri Aug 01, 2014 3:51 pm
