Yes definitely. In my experience I've only ever had to cool models from the Pi4 upwards. Of course the number of them I'm running is small, so it's anecdotal, but over years since the launch of the first Pi (which I still have), they're all still chugging along, with all but the Pi4s and Pi5s completely un-cooled (no heatsinks or fans).
- nottorp 2y agoI'm sort of whining a bit. I'd like it if they still kept a weaker Pi that doesn't require cooling in production. Not the Zeros though, full featured ones.
- fanf2 2y agoYou can still buy a Raspberry Pi 3. The more recent models can run without cooling; they will throttle if necessary.
- nottorp 2y agoDo they still manufacture it? Or is it old stock? Or is the A+ the new Raspberry PI 3? It seems to have a different form factor though. I don't see 3 Bs in stock in my usual places. 4s and 5s are plenty though.
