Yeah the update says it will lower the temp 2-4 degrees, not the 20 degrees Celsius that I'm seeing. I think these just run hot. Mine is fairly steady at 60 degrees while the Pi3 runs at 40.? The Pi3 starts to throttle at 80 degrees.? Don't remember what the Pi4 will throttle at but it is higher.

the heat off it ...

Something else to consider, my Pi3's run about 20 degrees cooler than the Pi4, which seems to just be a hotter device.? I installed a set of those cheap Internet cooling fins and it didn't make any difference.? A case with a fan might be required on these, especially if you are intending to drive it hard. Something else to consume power.

Just my 2 cents.
