“Great little single board computer, it will get better and better just like the rpi4 did. I am still getting to grips with the nvme boot but am sure it will work. Should be fantastic for retro games in a while once the retro pie folk get going on it, if you liked the pi4 you're going to love this, by the way get a cooler.”
“I was after a small device with low power consumption to run an astrophotography rig that would be battery powered. I coupled the Pi 5 up with an NVMe board and the whole unit works perfectly. I managed a six hour sesión the other night before cold got the better of me and the Pi 5 worked flawlessly throughout. It’s not really up to processing the images, but I have a Ryzen 7950x based PC for that.”
“I bought the rpi5 with 8 GB of ram and am doing very well. Much faster than version 4. I also got the heatsink with fan because it actually heats up a bit more than the previous versions.Nice the possibility of coupling an nvme ssd with the appropriate base. I am very satisfied.”
“This is a great product. It is an inexpensive computer that can be used for a very broad range of purposes. In my case I bought it to be a dedicated computer for use on digital ham radio modes. It will connect to a radio and be used to encode and decode messages. This will allow me to use my primary computer on other radios.”
