Hauppauge 350 and heat

[DoPeFiSh]

Does the Hauppauge PVR 350 get hotter than the Hauppauge PVR 150MCE or is it the same? I was thinking of selling my 350 to get another 150 because I don't use the remote with the 350 since I discovered HIP and it would keep the heat levels down in the case........thanks

Ive read about heat-related problems with the 350 in the past, but im fairly sure that these were only related to the hardware decoder and i think if you wernt using that then heat-wise they were the same as other PVR cards.

I used to use the hardware decoder (to many problems) but now I just use the software.......I just want to get the all around heat in the case low, I'v got all the wires wraped and to a junction box on the bottom, and I have two exhaust fans and one 120mm front fan for intake blowing over the Hard drives with a furnace filter infront to keep the dust levels down (just gotta remember to clean it...... )
