Post by /RaspberryPi »

I have six Pi setup running BOINC I tend to set them at 3 cores at 100%. I use active cooling and they sit at about 46-55 temp depending on the temp in the room.
My question as long as that temp is maintained I’m right I’m thinking they could run for a few years. Have another one mining, this one is full load 100% on all 4 cores. Sits at about 62-66 temp.
Have mixture of Pi types (Pi3s and Pi4s)
I have them on a UPS and so far been running for about 18 months solid. I use endurance Kingston SD cards for for the PiOS
So do we think it’s going to wear them out they are not throttling so I assume maybe OK. They have never crashed or Locked up
