In this video, I show you how to install the new USB3 Host Firmware on the Raspberry Pi 4 and in turn this should drop temps on the Pi 4 1Gb 2GB 4GB model by 3c – 5c because it saves about 300mW and helps the Pi4 to run cooler.
this will work on the Pi 4 1GB Pi 4 2GB or The Raspberry Pi 4 4GB version.
