Today we test the FLIRC case against the Canakit heatsinks. First the Canakit heatsinks were tested, then removed, and the FLIRC case was installed. The Pi was overclocked to 1400mhz.

The heatsinks were tested without a case on, just open to the air.

Benchmark used:

sysbench –test=cpu –num-theads=4 –cpu-max-prime=200000 run

RESULTS:

Heatsink FLIRC case Idle in command prompt after 10 mins 49c 38c Sysbench 2 minutes 83c 50c Sysbench 3 minutes 83c 52c Sysbench 4 minutes 84c 53c Sysbench 5 minutes 84c 54c Sysbench 10 minutes 85c throttle 56c

Here are the overclock settings used:

arm_freq=1400

gpu_freq=500

sdram_freq=500

over_voltage=6

v3d_freq=525

Conclusion: The FLIRC case rocks 🙂
