I have myself an Antminer S1, overclocked to 200 Gh/s.
I think it is overheating. The chips on the fan side are pretty hot, but I can touch them without it hurting. The chips on the opposite side are so hot that I can only touch them for about a second before it burns. From this side image (

), you can see the pins in the center that I think are holding the heat sink on the opposite side. There is a grey paste oozing from them; I think it is thermal paste.
It has been running two days straight now, and the room temp is about 70F to 75F.
What is going on here?
