So my testing today hit a snag, Cant seem to get the Newpac past 512mhz. It down-clocks itself to 506 then runs fine. Not sure if its a lack of power from my hub, or the limits of my chip? turned it back down to 500 since I know its stable there.
Bread boarded a temp sensor and stuck it the side of the heat sink, works good. at 500mhz the heat-sink doesn't reach above 24c. Thinking about loading obs onto the Pi, and starting a 24/7 Newpac stream. Thats about the only thing I could come up with for time being to utilize the Pi a bit more.
Edit: Got a stream going (
