My own feeling was that the QHy 8 gave a 'warmer' vibrant sort of glow to the stars. They were post processed much the same.

Having said that, The QHY - I really like the colour representation so juries still out here.

There's an Orion cooling box that is not that expensive. It cools the whole camera and encases it. It sounds like a really bright idea.
Also you should use a power supply fake battery setup. Discharging batteries give off heat and will add to the temperature of the camera.
