I just picked up a Megatouch ION from Kingpin games (Thanks Chris!) and I'm really enjoying it so far! It is loud though and I would like to upgrade to quieter fans. What are you guys recommending for fans on this model?-would you mind sharing part numbers or other info? The loudest is the one above the heatsync on the CPU but I may as well replace all of the fans with quieter units.

Also, has anyone upgraded their Hard drive to SSD and is the performance/speed gain worth it?

thanks!

I included a pic of the inside of my Megatouch for reference

Quoted from PoMC:

Adding memory will noticeably improve performance. Not sure a HD swap would be worth the effort though. Just make sure you have the memory maxxed out on the motherboard - that old RAM is dirt cheap.

Thank you! I do have 512mb of Memory which I read was the max that the system supports. I also ordered some quieter fans to help improve with the decibel level.

Has anyone ever had problems with games freezing up? Whenever I launch either of the Beer Pong games it starts loading and then freezes.-I have to reboot before I can do anything again. I disabled those games in the menu for now. I've also had a few instances where the system wouldn't boot with a D-Sub error which means it's not sending an output to the LCD monitor. If I re-seat the RAM and some of the connectors it seems to solve it. Hopefully it doesn't become a bigger issue in the future. Anyone else experience either of these issues and have any suggestions? thanks!

Quoted from RWH:

50mmx10mmx10mm

Thanks! That is the right size for 2 of the 3 fans. I think the CPU cooler fan is a 60mm.

Quoted from Don44:

Its probably something with the motherboard if it freezes up and will only get worse. I don't know how to troubleshoot that but I could refer you to somebody who fixes them. I would let the guy know who you recently purchased it from.

Hopefully that's not the case but if it is I know Kingpin Games will take care of me! Chris is a great distributor and his support is second to none. I know he's got a bunch of Megatouch's in stock (as well as hundred of other games) so if you are looking for something like this for your arcade give him a call. I'm really happy with the Megatouch. It's the perfect game for the home bar in my game room. My 3 year old is also having a ton of fun on it!
