But the CPU will not reach Tj because it will automatically throttle down when it is about 5 degrees Celsius away from Tj (we tested this multiple times). As soon as the CPU thermally throttles down, you start losing the increased performance you were aiming at while still consuming more power compared to the Balanced mode.

It is difficult for us to give you precise temperature values because what one witnesses depends on many factors: as already mentioned, the ambient temperature, the CPU BGA soldering thickness error, the heat sink assembly tolerance, the type of thermal paste and quantity applied, the cooling fan speed RPM error margin (which can be as high as 5 to 10%). All of these factors can result in a 10+ degrees Celsius difference between one setting and another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 1.3em; word-break: break-all; color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\"\u003eThe important point is that with active cooling you get the increased performance you aim at while the CPU stays just comfortably warm while turbo boosting indefinitely, way below temperatures close to Tj. In other words, the active cooling fan brings you the best of both worlds. This is what we witnessed and validated while performing many tests in different locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 1.3em; word-break: break-all; color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\"\u003eLast point: in Unlimited Performance mode, the CPU (and the fan) use more power than they do in Balanced mode, easily reaching 25 watts with the ODROID-H5. However, this happens only when the CPU is indeed turbo boosting. When idle, the system will use the same power as in Balanced mode. If your goal is to minimise energy consumption, use Balanced mode. If your goal is to maximise performance, use Unlimited Performance mode and again use active cooling with a fan to avoid the CPU from being constantly throttled down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 1.3em; word-break: break-all; color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\"\u003eFor learning how to change PL4 in the BIOS, as well as change the fan settings, please refer to the related Wiki page.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bolder;\"\u003eWIKI: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/wiki.odroid.com\/odroid-h5\/start\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" style=\"touch-action: manipulation; color: rgb(17, 17, 17); outline: none;\"\u003ehttps:\/\/wiki.odroid.com\/odroid-h5\/start\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e","brand":"Odroid Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59468120490332,"sku":"130001","price":210.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1062\/8225\/4684\/files\/02_3f0157eb-7de5-4283-a31e-bb867888cd1d.jpg?v=1791813637","url":"https:\/\/www.odroid.co.uk\/products\/odroid-h5","provider":"Odroid","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
