Hey, Just received this faulty DC off eBay and it has a weird fan that i have never seen before, and i've seen the inside if a fair amount of Dreamcasts. At first i thought maybe it was Frankenstein'd and made up of a Japanese mobo with everything else PAL, but its definitely a PAL console, and never been opened according to the seller and judging by the insides. Anyway, the fan is screwed to the metal heat plate, it has a black plastic surround like most other Dreamcasts, but its not screwed to it. Doubt its anything special, but thought id ask anyway. Chris.
Your Dreamcast is perfectly normal, nothing weird about it! I mentioned about this fan here... http://assemblergames.com/l/threads...erator-for-fan-replacement.61312/#post-884146 That fan is definitely one of the better designs, though not the quietest metal three pin fan available... Ted.
Sorry for the super noob question but what does VA0 stand for? Is it something like 'version alpha 0'. I get the idea from googling around that they are different versions, just curious as to what it stands for
