hmmm.... will try it and let u know... sir

over 24 hrs running at 5.7v .... and solid as rock... wires are cool heatsink is cool to touch... good stuff... i was not much for reading instructions kinda guy... most of my life...

how about running OS from sd card and... stuff u serve or "work with" on a usb drive? this might be stupid question... but can these boards be booted from usb ? u were correct... i did not expect a card to shit its pants in just 3 or 4 boots... anybody got a tool read temp. and v levels on m3? i got lm-sensors and not detecting.... and... reps for new chromium on deb? i need browser with ECMA6

but igor on those sd cards... u r correct i got a more expensive card and stuff started to work... now those that did not work were all 8gig class 4 cards... all of them started to have bad sectors... now it could not be so out of the factory... did using them some how cause the damage? i mean just the booting process or r/w ops in the m3?

hey... it's working... and staying cool... i will send some pics soon... i never done any work on a kernel level... just did not interest me that much.... but will try soon i feel it in my bones...

update: i might not be returning the board back... (nanopi m3) so i set supply voltage to 5.7v .... and now 1080p video runs flawlessly... and the board is not shutting down... desktop res is still at 720p so the video overshoots... but i can see the light at the end of the tunnel...

and... now that i got something running... board shuts down when playing video... so i set the clock to 1.4 ghz .... and when doing just OS stuff it stays ok for hrs... but then when video kicks-in... few seconds and it shuts down... but not into restart... but OFF... with power connected it dose not restart.... pressing reset does nothing... unplug/plug only...

hey tnx for all ur time... i will b returning the board to the shop... what would recommend for video playback with some overlays running in a browser.... ie: playback video... and display some info at time events... i need something to build for a local kids tech club... tnx

can u get 1080 on it? i got debian working too... only at 720... well i got ubuntu core to run as well... but have not had the time to play with it yet. when i tried playing 1080 video on youtube... the board shutdown on me...

I have 12v at 1.5a coming in as well...

hey james... i got one here in poland from a site: https://botland.com.pl/ dont know if they ship outside of the country.... Edit1: hey nbbro.... so urs is working fine? Edit2: hey igor, i think i tries 4 diff sd cards... same story with all of them... Edit3: hej james what are running on it?

so i have 5.3v.... this dc-dc is rated at 3a... and this what i got on the screen igor... check it out...

i dont know 1/2 the stuff i have sometimes... it runs dry... just waiting for sd card...

so looking thank you `martinayotte` for 7805 i found this gizmo... dc-dc... i am making desktop sd now... let's how it works in a few...
