        @gkralicek2 It's very good news. My previous rpi3 was frozen with 1340 MHZ. If this b*mp can make reach at least 1500 MHZ for me it's a success :). I ordered it soem days ago yet so let's wait for Recalbox to support it.

        Raspberry Pi model: RPi 3b+
        Recalbox build : 7.0.1 DragonBlaze
        Hardware: MicroSD UHS 128 GB up to 80 MB, Class 10 and 2.5 A Power Supply.
        Overclocked: 1485 MHZ
        Controller(s): Wired Xbox 360 PAD (working perfectly on any other game/emulator).

              Hi,
              I received my first Pi 3B+ at the moment.
              I tested with Recalbox 18.02.09, and I have a small icon "yellow sign electric" in the upper right corner of my screen, that's all.
              I tested with raspbian 2018-03-13, and there my raspberry works, so it is not defective.
              I think a new file is needed to support the new processor model...

                  @mickaelm Pi3B+ only came out a few days ago. Give it time.

                    @dark_néo
                    arm_freq=1600
                    gpu_freq=500
                    core_freq=500
                    sdram_freq=500
                    sdram_schmoo=0x02000020
                    over_voltage=4
                    sdram_over_voltage=2

                    With these, temp is very close to 80 degrees when running emulators like reicast for a while. But so far it held up well without freezing on most of the cards i tried.

                      @substring is there a way to edit the files to get it to work while it gets updated? as retropie works but wifi dodgy, keep up the good work its appreciated 🙂

                        @dessy i'm not sure, i don't have a 3b+ myself. If it's just a dtb, give a go, it's a costless effort

                            @dessy yeah but i don't think it's enough. I'm working on a big system update may b*mp all this myself and hope a 3b+ will arrive soon 😮

                              @gkralicek2 did you use any heatsink or cooling soultion to get 1,6 ghz on the new pi3 b+?

                              @substring recalbox is the only OS i would like to use on the new pi3 b+. so hopefully an compatible update will come soon.

                                    @monero Nope no heatsink. Heat control is very good on the new B+. On the standard Pi 3, even when putting heatsink one could barely let his finger on the CPU without burning himself after a few hours of use. On the current B+, the CPU is hot when touching it but not "burning hot" (even when CPU inner temperature is very high, dissipation is well handled and doesn't give the impression the whole unit is gonna melt :=)

                                      @dessy sadly it won't help as it's a matter of how the kerbel detects the board. You'd need an UART to be helpful as of now

                                        In Retro Pi 4.3.15 the Kernel modyfied and work well on New Pi 3 B+. Did this help us for recalbox ?

                                          @gameboy nope, because we're on kernel 4.4 😛 we'd need to b*mp to 4.9, adapt kernel patches and rebuild. I'm working on it

                                            @substring Maybe it's a bit early for you to give the answer, but maybe you'd know already.
                                            Will it be the same Recalbox .img file to burn on both pi3 B and B+ or a different one ?
