Heat Sink/Cooling solution employed on main board.

Many Nexus 7 2013 users are noticing a distinct increase in heat in the processor area (which is to be expected in most cases). What I'd like to know is the type of heat sink/cooling solution ASUS decided to use in this device.

I'd almost be inclined to run this device with the back off if I was using a custom case to improve ventilation. It seriously cooks.

Looking at the teardown pictures there doesn't seem to be any. Even Apple doesn't use any heat dissipation or fans on their iOS devices so this is not unexpected.
