- jolux 6y agoThat’s right, but the vast majority of it is metal.
- xxs 6y agoYeah but the thermal expansion/contraction between plastic and composite (PC+GF) would not be welcome. Flip note: glass fiber reinforced polyamide(nylon) and polycarbonate have similar strength to aluminum. Another issue would be use of adhesive that generally dislike heat even more than the electronics do.
- jolux 6y agoI don’t think the composite parts are structural, but I could be wrong. Either way how come the body doesn’t already dissipate heat? What am I missing? Are the thermal pads not connected to it?
