The Most Efficient Cooling Solution for Raspberry Pi 4

The Most Efficient Cooling Solution for Raspberry Pi 4

Over Christmas I ran a huge backtest on my Raspberry Pi 4 using a shell script for crypto trading (I'll write an article about this later). It loaded the CPU to 100% for 3 days. The result of this backtest wasn't convincing, but on the other hand I also tested the cooling of the Raspberry Pi. Let's see the result:

As you can see on this graph above (Thanks to RPi-Monitor), the CPU temperature wasn't more than 71 Celsius even after 3 days stress test. It's great news because the throttling limit is 80 Celsius. You're good under this temperature.

As I mentioned in my previous article, I use Armor Case for cooling down my Raspberry Pi, this is the cheapest and most efficient (passive) cooling method based on my experience.

You can buy this case on eBay or Aliexpress. If you are looking for other hardware recommendations, check this article.
