Re: [PLUG] plug Digest, Vol 138, Issue 5

As for the technology from the last fosscon Jason Plum from Arch Linux ARM and myself were sitting at the table filled with ARM boards :-). Shoot me an e-mail directly if you find yourself shopping for boards in the future.

Thanks for the help guys :)

As for the ODroid thing, I got the Pi because 1. I was interested in the technology from last year's FOSSCon and I wanted to bring something with me for when I can get a small carry-around Monitor and 2. It was at Micro Center and I like shopping for physical products at actual stores rather than online :)

And thanks again for letting me know that 130º F is a fine temperature for the Pi. I asked that because I was playing a game on RetroPie with it and at one point the game froze and I was concerned if it was the CPU or not

John,

I did forget the memory move. Thank you.

Still if you must... Look at older crap graphics cards if you want a heat
sink. Also if you look I think adafruit sold some Mohawks... I mean heat
sinks for the pi. Still, I wouldn't worry about it. By the time you get a
pi how you want it you realize you should have purchased an odroid.

It ain't hot until it's over 177C! Oil field geology tools routinely run @ 170C+ for hours @ a time.

Agreed on both counts. A heatsink only helps if the chip the sink is on is much hotter than the air around it, and 130F isn't much at all. I wouldn't become even slightly worried about any electronics until they pass 80C (~175F) or more.

Hey There

If anyone has any in the area, I was wondering if anyone is willing to give me or sell me (for when I get Money again on Jun. 1st) some Heatsinks for a Raspberry Pi 3. I'm a little cautious for RetroPie since it's showing at 130? F or more while running RetroPie
