2x PPC = 20 heat
3 PPC's = 42.6 for a ghost heat of 12.6
12/6/42 is roughly 30% extra heat
The bonus means:
12.5% less heat (actual heat = ~37.5)
On top of that you disipate 10% faster
If you have an 8Q with a 300 std engine, and max heat sinks, you heat disipation is roughly 3.85h/s (up from 3.5 h/s). That means that you will cool down an extra 1.2 heat, making the effective ghost heat 36.3.
Which means that the change almost but not quite takes care of the ghost heat.
But that is NOt the smart play
If you bump that 8Q to lower it to a STD 275, 4 PPC's, and do chain fire 2x2, the heat is 40 (less than ghost heat), and you only lose 3 heat sinks (one engine 2 others), for a loss of 0.48 h/s, which puts you at roughly the same heat dissipation as prior to the update.
That means that for the loss of 5 kph, you gain a full PPC dmg and have better heat dissipation than prior to the buff

And pray nothing closes on you.
4 PPCs on those means you are carrying heat sinks, and PPCs, period, that is a pretty big disadvantage, specially since they removed all damage below 90m.

True.
You could go with 3+ a bunch of medium lasers too.
Or run 3xERPC and do 2 then 1 shots
Or run the 4xPPC in a group and don't worry about it.
