What would you like to see tested on the Raspberry Pi 4?

cstanton

We have a couple of these in the office that we can run software / test some things on - so what would you like to see tested on the hardware that would help to swing the decision for you as to whether or not it's worth it?

 

I've seen a few questions about Sega Rally running on MAME, questions about h264 encoding, realtime transcoding - for some of these I'd have to find the software/setup but it's certainly do-able.

 

So let me know, what do you want to see tested on the Pi 4?

    I think you can read what you need to about the USB-C port here.

    Sorry, I was being being facetious. image

     

    - How about delidding the CPU to see how cool it can get with a bespoke heatsink/fan when clocked? (not even sure if this is possible)

     

    - passively cooled vs. actively cooled pi4?

    Benchmarking the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B , scroll down to about "Seriously, Keep this Cool and in a Case" - what would you like to see done differently?

     

    > How about delidding the CPU to see how cool it can get with a bespoke heatsink/fan when clocked?

    I'm not sure that can even be done safely...

    Very good benchmark - Only additional thing would be seeing how well the PoE HAT cools the Rpi4.

     

    This looks 'cool' too https://thepihut.com/products/raspberry-pi-water-cooling-kit

    the 3dprinted case in this test has the fan on a side, the performance may be different than placing the cooler right on top of the heatsink. also the heatsink was one of those small ones that have been around from previous generations, for the pi4 i've seen some much much larger heatsinks.
