I already have 2 Pi 3's which are used, successfully, as media centre's. I bought the Pi 4 to see if it could be used as a replacement for my main Linux Computer. I liked the fact that the Pi 4 is more powerfull and has 4 Gb of memory. A friend already had a Pi 4 and advised I buy a case with a cooling fan. This I did and the temperature rarely goes above 45 degrees C. The Pi 4 is a great little computer, but I did have a few problems. I use smartmail for my emails and it has a function that logs you out after a period of inactivity. This was accelerated in Chromium on the Pi 4. Twice it caught me out in the middle of adding URLs to text. Because I wasn't typing it thought to itself; "Ah! Inactivity. I'll log out!" Then there is the screen tear when playing videos from Youtube on Chromium. Very annoying! I installed P7zip-full because I like to add a password to compressed files, for security. It didn't offer me the option to password protect a file when I compressed it from within the file manager. Having said all of that, this could be a problem with the Raspbian OS. I'll have to try it with another OS. But I will not be replacing my main computer with a PI 4 anytime soon!

Raspberry Pi 4 B is a great computer board, which I personally use for arcade games. It’s noticeably faster than the other Raspberry Pi’s I’ve used in the past, and will be using these from now on. Very good for the price, and would recommend to anyone.

Wee bit on the toasty side at times with temps getting up between 50/60 (deg cel) but mostly runs around 40/45. Very good little machine easy to work.

The fastest Pi yet. Runs quite hot and needs active (fan) or passive (metal case) cooling if working hard.

Bought this to use with a DAC. Sound quality vastly improved and speed of acquiring files increased. Very pleased and I think it now is better than the Asus Tinkerboard. So pleased I bought another.
