I’m recording 64° right now and about 61° during evening and night. Will this cause damage?
I don’t even know whether it is normal, it isn’t that hot where I live. Could there per any chance be heatsink issues?
Best regards,
Jeroen
Hi, i’ve measured over 80C and still alive. it’s in the standard metal case - but drilled over the heatsink
Hi,
I was thinking about this just yesterday 
My 450G was operating @ 66-67°C for 3 days, when it suddently “rebooted” all by itself (and complained about a unclean shutdown sequence… O’Rly?!)
I don’t know if it’s related, as I upgraded from v4.17 to v5.4 a couple of days before.
The 450G documentation writes: Temperature range -20C to +45C
But it’s not that meaningfull as my board is in a case and not opened to the sky…
I’m not willing to drill the case either, even knowing that room temperature can be much higher than it is actually 
If you read other documentation on routerboard.com, it says it will operate until 65°. So I’m still inside the safe zone .
Perhaps Normis will favour us with an official kind of reply?
temp range is operating environment temperature and NOT unit’s hottest point temperature
This is my RB450G placed in a rack with heavy throughput. Here 65°C seems like it’s minimum (: And I don’t have problems (at least temperature related) with it.
