raspberry pi 4 cooling
I'm making a homeassistant sever with my raspberry pi and and i'm wondering since it's going to be on 24/7 that the fans going to wear out much faster than intended. I can't imagine that I would need a fan ontop of a heat sink and thermal paste it can't get that hot? I should also note that i'm using an Argon V2 it's one of those heat sink cases that are made for raspberry pis
You're viewing a single thread.
i like both the argon and the simple heatsink setups, either work great. i did end up adding an additional heatsink to the argon, the flat case does not provide great heat exchange in an enclosed space.
you can do passive cooling as well, just all depends on how hot the location gets.
probably gonna have it on a shelf next to my desk I also have a small bit strong small vornado fan I use to keep me cool. that hits my desk too
should be fine, if you don't like how warm it gets a set of small heatsinks for amplifiers will run you a few bucks and takes all of 10 seconds to install.
ok thanks
