Troubleshooting • Re: Is the Raspberry Pi 5 power (in)efficient?

https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/heatin ... erry-pi-5/
Without any cooling in place, the Raspberry Pi 5’s CPU idle temperature is around 65°C when sitting out in the open air on the lab bench.
That seems at odds with the "under typical loads Raspberry Pi 5 will run cooler than a similarly loaded Raspberry Pi 4" from the same link.

Both my Pi 4B and 3B are reporting below 40C at idle, just running the desktop.

That 65C is 60% higher than either, hardly "cooler", so maybe they are saying temperature creeps up slower from the baseline on a Pi 5 as workload increases, but it's got a hefty baseline to start with.
