FAQ

1. Can I run overclock mode on CM4 Media?
It is fine to run overclock mode because of the excellent cooling performance of CM4 Media. Users can set higher operating frequency of BCM2711.
We did some testing, CM4 Media can operate well at 2GHz but the casing is very hot. We don’t suggest to run CM4 Media at a GHz higher than 1.5 (defaulted frequency value) in a long time.
2.What is the maximum memory of CM4 Media?
8GB as maximum. 1GB/2GB/4GB/8GB LPDDR4-3200 SDRAM Optional
3.What are the Storage options?
Support boot from SD Card( Capacity can be choose from 32GB~256GB); Or Support boot from SSD hard disk driver(Capacity can be choose from 120GB~1TB; Or Support boot from eMMC ( 8GB/16GB/32GB).
