I am using the metal heat sink for my pi4. It runs Kodi.. and stays around 60c, mostly 59c it seems.. house is kept at 25.5c
think the no fan option appeals to me. Thanks for the tip about thermal paste.

Without proper thermal paste heat sinks do virtually nothing. Compared to a fan even with paste they are no where near as effective.
If you are running latest firmware it seems to prevent a lot of the issues with heat except for higher work loads.
Once I get my 4s I’ll do some testing.
I recommend ordering a small tube of Artic silver on Amazon never hurts to have decent thermal paste handy.
