      Thanks for the advice guys. I'll look around for a nice looking case with a quiet fan.

      Would I have to worry about Overheating with an Aluminium case?

      Interesting, though I have no clue what you mean by large compile in this circumstance, I am guessing loading or trying to run a large file, or intense program.
      (Also, now I'd really like to know. Even with all my degrees and certifications, I feel like I learn something new everyday in my field of study... which I both love and hate.)

      Thank you in advance!

      no problem :) i mean you install something from 'source' via https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/updating-retropie#updatinginstalling-individual-packages

      rather than downloading the application, this takes the latest code and 'builds' the application on your raspberry pi, which uses several CPU cores (almost every emulator only really uses one), and maxes them out for 30+ minutes.
