After every test, it will show the current CPU temperature Usage You don't need to download any program, compile sources, etc... It's so easy! Just copy and paste the following command in your Raspberry Pi console: curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aikoncwd/rpi-benchmark/master/rpi-benchmark.sh | sudo bash The rpi-benchmark script will start in 2 seconds relaxed Overclocking I want better results, can I overclock my RPi? Yes, overclocking your RPi will give you more power for your CPU calculations, more speed while read/write into your memory ram and better speeds while read/write into your microSD card. If you use your RPi as a MediaCenter with Kodi or to play games with RetroPie, you will find a nice perfomance boost. I strongly recommend to use some cooling on your RPi to avoid CPU throttling (at 85ºC) Raspberry Pi 3: Overclock settings Edit your /boot/config.txt file and paste the following code, you can adjust #values to get more or less overclock: force_turbo=0 #Enable cpu-overclock over 1300MHz (default 0) avoid_pwm_pll=1 #Enable no-relative freq between cpu and gpu cores (default 0) arm_freq=1300 #Frequency of ARM processor core in MHz (default 1200) core_freq=550 #Frequency of GPU processor core in MHz (default 400) over_voltage=6 #ARM/GPU voltage adjust, values over 6 voids warranty (default 0) sdram_freq=575 #Frequency of SDRAM in MHz (default 450) sdram_schmoo=0x02000020 #Set SDRAM schmoo to get more than 500MHz freq (default unset) over_voltage_sdram_p=6 #SDRAM phy voltage adjust (default 0) over_voltage_sdram_i=4 #SDRAM I/O voltage adjust (default 0) over_voltage_sdram_c=4 #SDRAM controller voltage adjust (default 0) gpu_mem=256 #GPU memory in MB. Memory split between ARM and GPU (default 64?) gpu_freq=550 #Sets core_freq h264_freq isp_freq v3d_freq together (default 300) v3d_freq=500 #Frequency of 3D block in MHz (default ?) h264_freq=350 #Frequency of hardware video block in MHz (default ?) dtparam=sd_overclock=90 #Clock in MHz to use for MMC micrSD (default 50) dtparam=audio=on #Enables the onboard ALSA audio (always use this ON) dtparam=spi=on #Enables the SPI interfaces (default OFF) temp_limit=80 #Overheat protection.
