We endedup replacing our soekris boards being used as routers with VyOS with Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite since we only needed 2 router ports for this install. We used a 1U bracket so we could install 2 of them in 1U, saving a bit of space.
https://www.rfarmor.com/index.php/toughswitch-mounts/1uurspoe.html I'm disappointed to find that Soekris has been so quite about these problems. If this was a preventable heat issue with the CPU, I'm doubly disappointed since I asked about CPU power management when I first got the boards. Soekris provided no solution but to run the CPUs at full power when they're very capable of running at much lower power with "normal" intel BIOS configurations.
