I need to report an issue with the RP5 I just recieved.
This Pi 5 is working but compared to my other Pi5, this new one runs hotter then the other. (about 35 degrees more) , I did not want to add active cooler to it. It run at idle w/ Librelect 11.0.5 to 157 deg. My other unit is at 128 also with heatsinks.
The entire new board including the USB housings are are very warm. I am unable to touch it for very long.
Also noticed that this card will NOT run with a Raspberry Pi 3 amp power supply. It needs the 5 amp supply in order to continue to boot.
I swapped the SD cards to see if mybe the software had a glitch, that made no difference with the thermal issue or the booting issue.
If you need any other information please let mee know
