The environment/room temperature is off importance too. In general, if you can run at 50 degrees Celsius or less, it seems you should be in the green zone.Įven if you should go above it, you may be able to add a little fan, some cooling sinks, and quickly drive down the temperature. That is an upper limit, and you should note that there may some chips on the Raspberry mainboard which are only qualified to go up to 70 Degrees Celsius. The Raspberry Pi foundation recommends to keep your Raspberry Pi below 85 degrees Celsius. I have another Raspberry Pi 3 with a plastic shell, a couple of heat sinks and no fan, and that one is running at 44.4 Degrees Celsius currently. Mine (a Raspberry Pi 4) runs in a tight metal enclosure (the armour twin fan aluminum radiator housing) with a single cooling fan running, and it is quite cool here tonight. Note that the temperature on your Pi may be higher, for example 45 degrees Celsius. You should receive output similar to the following: Go ahead and execute the following command: vcgencmd measure_temp
