      All my modules work except MMM-SingleStock. So far it loads much faster than the Pi 3. I had to abandon using MM2 because I could not run it for more than 3 hours without crashing. Fingers crossed the 4 is more stable. Will let it run overnight to see.

      Yeah my Pi 3 seems to run out of memory, I opted for 4Gb model should have enough grunt to run everything with any issues

        @dazza120 Pi 4 has been running for 10 hours now and no issues. Had never been able to run the Pi 3 overnight so I think we have a winner!

            Yes, a small fan on an open plexiglass case. No heatsink. Without the fan it would complain about overheating.

            Should mention it’s running 4 RTSP streams.

              I’m positively surprised…

                Can I just upgrade the Pi 3 to the Buster OS so i can just swap the ssd over. Can someone confirm if it’s a plug and play boot from OS on an SSD? Rather than through the bios bit to enable it. Really looking forward to this PI I might get a heat sink but I want a big one not the little ones, need to see if I still have the one from the sky box, got a fan already for it but only activates when the TV is on

                  Except for the one module mentioned above everything working for me on Buster. Haven’t looked at logs or anything to see if there are errors being thrown that I don’t notice but so far so good.

                    @SH20192 I see.

                    I will start with an old Intel heatsink.

                    I got very good cooling results with a Rock Pi 4 B so I don’t think it will be any worse hehe.

                      Would that even fit on the Pi?

                            @dazza120 ouch correct. :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

                            On the other board I could place it on the bottom side while on the Rpi you can’t.

                              Me too. The first test I just lost the HDMI signal but it seemed to be up. Second test it all locked up around 4 hours in.

                                @SH20192 just out of curiosity were you running MagicMirror?

                                And if so were you running MMM-Spotify?
                                I ask because last update of this module is giving me a black screen.

                                My Rpi 4 arrived a couple of hours ago, but I still have to take it out of the box.

                                  @Cr4z33 black screen means error in the UI code… so, open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i, select the console tab, and scroll up to find the error…

                                      is it over heating? ETA prime has his overclocked to 1.7Ghz CPU and 600Mhz on the GPU 😳 it must be on fire 🔥 😂

                                        Probably not. There was a fan on it.

                                          My issue with the Pi and MM is different.

                                          After installing MM, configuring autostart I rebooted, but now the max resolution is 1024x768… 😣

                                            OK problem sorted and… one suggestion for every body going to buy a Rpi 4:

                                            DO NOT USE MICRO HDMI TO HDMI ADAPTER! IT’S CRAP AND CAUSES ISSUES WITH HDMI RESOLUTION!
