Raspberry Pi 5 8GB LPDDR4 2.4GHz Quad-Core ARM Cortex-A76 - Dual 4K Displays - LPDDR4X-4267 SDRAM - PCIe 2.0 - Dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi - Bluetooth - Support PoE+

Significant performance improvement over Pi 4.
4GB option running Ubuntu desktop with dual monitors works pretty well. Significant performance improvement over Pi 4.

The information on it say it is cooler than PI4 but it is not. Started out at 60+ on idle, the official cooler took it down to 47 idle and then I adjusted this case (because I really like it, this is my third purchase of this case) https://www.pbtech.co.nz/product/SEVRBP0248/Raspberry-Pi-Case-Silver-Aluminium-Case-with-Mount to fit the PI5 by filing out the network/USB holes and fitted the fan on the outside with further filing so the fan has no obstructions and now the PI5 is happily idling at 38, which is great because I am a firm believer that cooler Equipment lasts longer.

So you can get the picture, I am real happy with my purchase. The information on it say it is cooler than PI4 but it is not.

The pi 5 lives up the the reviews, more responsive than the 4. Fits into the 3D case I printed that also holds a 5 inch screen. Great portable machine running at 2.4 gig. I am pleased.

This is my first Raspberry Pi. I run a headless Ubuntu LAMP Server on it, which I use for serving files and websites to the local area network, in particular for controlling and monitoring our solar photovoltaic installation. The little machine appears to be well up to the task and enjoying itself, with plenty of spare capacity. This is my first Raspberry Pi.

I run an oracle database on docker ON A PI.!!!! HOW MAD IS THAT!!!

Bloody brilliant. I run an oracle database on docker ON A PI.!!!! HOW MAD IS THAT!!!

This is a classic case of what you see is what you get. All pi's are great products, and this is no exception. Way quicker then a pi 4 but
definately needs a fan and heatsink. The official case does the job perfectly. I have yet to see if it can be used as a desktop,
but it looks promising. Probably overkill for anything else. This is a classic case of what you see is what you get. All pi's are great products, and this is no exception. Way quicker then a pi 4 but

It's a good product, but you're going to have to use the official power supply to get it working, and because it's ARM64, most software doesn't support it, however you can use emulation like box64, box86 and/or wine.

Nice and Fast, this is a great improvement over previous models of the Pi, but it gets hot. I got the official Pi 5 case and that does a good job at keeping it cool, however I might get the Active Cooler for applications where I need the IO more accessible for shields. This runs Raspbian super fast, and I am really happy I got the 8G RAM version, as my Pi4 was 2G RAM and that was crippled in many ways because of it. Happy with my purchase.

Faster than the Pi 4 and have been using it as my primary computer for 3 days. Very pleased. Definitely runs hotter than previous models so make sure you get the case or active cooling.

Happy customer, best price around and they had it in stock for pickup the same day Happy customer, best price around and they had it in stock for pickup the same day

Raspberry Pi are keeping their reputation for delivering a surprising amount of power for the small price tag and size. I think the 5 is a slightly different beast in that it really needs active cooling to reach its full potential, so if you're planning to flex it then you should also grab suitable accessories to keep the temperature down. Luckily for you those are also quite affordable!
