Cooling Considerations

Heat-generating components of the MXC-2300 (such as CPU and
PCH) are all situated on the left side of the system. These compo-
nents directly contact the heat sink via thermal pads and dissipate
heat generated by the components. To maximize efficiency of heat
dissipation, maintain a minimum of 2 inches (5 cm) clearance on
the top of the MXC-2300 controller.
