Why You Need a Heatsink for Raspberry Pi?
Tech-Gurus often suggest that Raspberry Pi 3 doesn’t need a heatsink. Well, there is a bit of confusion and we’ll love to avoid this confusion in the next paragraph. Raspberry Pi modules tend to heat up quickly and their performance drops from 10% to 20%. To keep the module cool and effective, a heatsink is a highly recommended solution especially when you are looking to work for hours after hours. You’d never want to deal with such a frustration as soon as you set yourself working on a program or coding something important.
Everything has its pros and cons so does the official Raspberry Pi 3. Yes! Unlike its predecessors, Raspberry Pi 3 doesn’t heat up quickly. What actually happens is that Pi 3 adjusts its performance to avoid overheating. The performance reduces to 0.96 GHz instead of 1.16 GHz. Heatsink for Raspberry Pi is the most efficient way to help Pi 3 to help maintain top performance level.Â
