I see this often enough that it seems prudent that it should have a post of its own. I see people asking about overclocking, I’ll post here what I’ve overclocked my CM4 to and I hope, if any of you have been more daring. You will share your observations and outcomes here.

If you have a uconsole I suggest setting up your processor temp applet on the task bar. (right click the task bar, click to add. and put it where it suits you)

With these settings I have not had temps above 53c (My general usage has it sitting at about 47c in a 72f room). But, I will admit that I use my phone for most streaming uses, my uconsole handles my web browsing and GBC emulation needs. This being said I have watched youtube a few times with this overclock and have been very pleased with the results.

My Overclocking is admittedly middle of the road. But as I said I as of yet have not needed to push my hard.

Perhaps if you intend to push your device farther. see what @thoughtfix has done for cooling on his uconsole with a cm5 here: [fixed CM5 Overheating problem](https://forum.clockworkpi.com/t/fixed-my-cm5-overheating-problem-with-a-riser-and-a-thin-thermal-pad/15872)
