“I have this on a RPi 4 running Homeassistant, wit a standard case. It's generally at around 42C compared with the 50+ that it was previously at with a smaller sink.”
“Works with "most hats" which does NOT include the official PoE hat! I inserted female headers to raise the PoE hat, after which it no longer fits in the case I bought.
I was initially a bit concerned that they use a basic sticker rather than a thermal pad, but the board now idles at 50 C with the PoE fan curve adjusted so it doesn't turn on except under load.
So all in all a bit sketchy, but it achieved the desired result: no fan noise while idle”
“Nice and easy to fit and regulates the heat far better than no heatsink at all. I havent tried overclocking, but with the heatsink I've seen no throttling - which is 5 stars in my book.”
