Naomi2 arrived not well

[mathewbeall]

Hi Folks,

I bought a "backup" Naomi2 from LegendHK on Ebay - and it arrived with some issues, even though it was packed well.

1 - one of the CPU heatsinks came off - since there is no bracket - what is the proper way to re-affix the heatsink so it stays on? (doesn't appear to be a bracket).

2 - perhaps more alarming - a surface mount cap was bouncing around in the case - so I can assume that the heatsink moving around knocked one loose - I just have to find out where it is from (no help needed, just need to play 'where is waldo")

i have the same problem with my naomi 2 from him. one of the heatsink and fan came off. the naomi 2 is still working anyway.
i think it needs some sort of thermal glue or something to affix the heatsink back on the chip. i am comtemplating removing the plastic piece on the chip and using thermal paste.
i intend to replace all the caps on my naomi 1 and 2. you can get the kit from console5.
