Temperature drops in Raspberry Pi 3 single board computers

The pros and cons of the design are mostly covered in other reviews. I'd like to add that the fan isn't very noisy, the case gives the Pi a decent amount of weight, and the flat copper part for SDRAM on the bottom is significantly larger than the chip itself. I bought this for my Raspberry Pi 3 as it's notorious is hotter than previous models. I took the time to measure the temperature before and after the installation using the built-in sensor and the "Stress" program available via apt-get. Console commands: scrolling temperature and processor clock speed values: true so far; do echo $(date +%H:%M:%S) ',' $(vcgencmd Measure_temp

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • Hard to say
