Hi, most imprtant thing to do is update firmware when your Raspi arrives. Mine was delivered 1 month ago and came with old firmware. Temperature whilst idle was 74ºC (at 80ºC CPU starts throttling down). After updating firmware temperature dropped to 62-64ºC in idle state. Be careful not to confuse kernel update with firmware update, I've seen many posters in forums updating the Kernel and complaining about problems afterwards when only firmware update is needed for this. This is what I did in my Pi 4 with Max2Play 2.52: I followed the instructions from http://www.geeks3d.com/20191101/raspberry-pi-4-new-firmware-reduces-power-consumption-and-boards-temperatures/: $ sudo apt update $ sudo apt upgrade $ sudo apt install rpi-eeprom Now, run the following command to check the status of the bootloader + VL805 code: $ sudo rpi-eeprom-update And finally reboot
Don’t run "apt dist-upgrade" or "apt full-upgrade" since they will upgrade important components like the kernel and may cause your Pi not to work depending on the software installed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ waldo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=19888 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110838
