Chromecast GoogleTV thermals...

Deleted User — Tue, 27 Oct 2020 04:24:57 GMT

I am by far impressed with Stadia but I find odd that the new Chromecast with GoogleTV will not be supporting Stadia for the remainder of the 2020 holidays. Knowing that the Chromecast Ultra thermals weren’t ideal, can we at least know if thermals on the new Chromecast with GoogleTV will run cooler during long game sessions on Stadia? My Chromecast Ultra would shut down automatically due to overheating, so I had to buy a 3rd party heatsink.

I was thinking to buy the Ultra for stadia.. But if i read correctly you say when you play a game the Chromecast shut down because its overheating?

About what time period it shut down?

Its about 5 hours gaming or 10 hours gaming? So I know or i need to order the Chromecast or just keep gaming on my PC or DEX

Hi @lafertin

my CCU had now over heating issue so far, but it has plenty of room and gets quite too hot to touch it. I played on 4k for around 3h.

@Deleted User hm, what could be a testable scenario? Watching 4k YouTube?
