“Very good quality microcomputer!
I like it is compatible, as other Rasberry Pi 4, but more powerful than others! Definitely short-future proof thing.”
“I already have Pi3 and decided it was time to try the 4. I told the Mrs I wanted to test if it could play a game - believing it wouldn't work so I could say "oh dear ... Now I also need to buy a gaming PC" - keeping the Pi to have some fun.
Imagine my surprise when the later Vulkan GUI drivers had made some progress - so now I COULD play my game - open BVE that I compiled for Pi4 using Mono.
See https://youtu.be/RhCdycfyDGg - I can virtual travel on Underground even during these tricky times.
Now some will say 8 - 18 fps is not very fast. Well it beasts i7 with Intel 620 graphics and keeps up with an i7 and NVidia 980M.
So well pleased with purchase
I wish I had realise I could have bought the Argon case - without the cooling and overclocking plus experimental Vulkan/openGL driver the Pi4 had no chance to play game
I have since build and used ZynAddSubFX - the real reason why I wanted to see how far the Pi had evolved. And this is definitely also usable now - was too slow on Pi3.”
“Just what I needed for an always-on little server to run various payloads on at home.
Delivery was problem free so that's another positive from Pimoroni.”
“Now my reapberrypi 4 with 8GB RAM is going to be the fastest of my pi collection an I will be able to brows and watch Youtube videos from it without loading delays. Hope it will be almost like an AI Jetson nano. This is small and I can put fix it in my standard case and take it in my pocket to have my power point lectures. As far as booting is possible with a USB drive, it is going to be even more faster. I can store more data in the same usb drive is another piece of cake.”
