Super excited, not sure what I'll repurpose the old Zero W that's in it now to do yet~
Then just get a CM4/Raspberry Pi 4. It won't get better than 512MB due to manufacturing limitations, and it's application is high-power IoT, not desktop.
@@WhenDoesTheVideoActuallyStart I understand all that and have no issues with it as is really, just that it would be neat. Im sure as it is it would still be a neat little emulation system
Flirc Case, Stock Pi3+ power supply. Tried compiling Vaulkin on it for 10min and got up to 72C with 100% load. # Over Clock arm_freq=1400 core_freq=525 over_voltage=6 gpu_freq=700
@ETA PRIME I put some heat sinks on the base also and with a very crude setup got arm_freq=1350 over_voltage=4 I think we might see some novel cooling for the zero2 as the base pcb is a huge flat cooling area beneficial to the stacked SoC So just a 2x covering all of the rear pcb and a small one on the top
Cool, I hope to nab one of these new Pi Zeros at MicroCenter next week + a case. I'm going to see if the new Pi Zero version works better in a Retropie set up.
Great review and a great device. We had big problems to install LibreOffice on the new Linux PinePhone. Then, we found, that LibreOffice can be installed easily on a Raspberry PI zero W2. A great coder recommendet to use Abiword and Gnumerics for the PinePhone. Abiword was hardly updated since the last 10 years. Abiword and Gnumerics run also on Raspberry PI zero W2. Why to buy a Linux PinePhone then? We can buy a Raspberry PI zero W2 and have the same Office suite on it. And we will also test a Fairphone 2 with PostmarkedOS which can be bought on ebay for 100 USD. In Switzerland, the PinePhone is 300 USD shipping included.
Top work Mr ETA , I just installed the debian 64bit shell to my raspberry pi os and installed Xmrig miner to crypto mine "Turtlecoin" the pi 4 does about 150 hash a second about 60 coins a day or $0.01 so I see how the Pi Zero2 does with this overclock. Just a hobby for me , got another pi zero 2 coming monday so i can learn a bit about cluster computing and make a render farm for Blender adding my 2 pi 4's on top.
Note the zero does NOT have a composite video pinheader (hole), instead it has a composite video solderpad marked TV on the bottom. solder a wire to it to connect the composite video signal to your gameboy micro board.
I'm sure they didn't include more RAM in the Zero 2 in order to not cannibalize sales of the Pi 3 or 4 models or in order to hit their super low price point. Still a neat device for certain applications!
The video uploaded on ETA prime is very helpful for studying. thank you~! Thank you for watching this Raspberry Pi Zero 2 overclock experiment! It's amazing that it performs better than the Raspberry Pi 3. Could the battery life be longer than zero 1 by lowering the voltage and downclocking?
3 ปีที่แล้ว +3
i think the first zero W haw 1W of consumption, while this has 2.5W, so there would need to be huge downclocking. But try putting arm_freq_min=XXX in config file, that will clock CPU down when its not used. Works for my Pi 0 2W and Pi4
Don't think that will work... I believe gpi case uses the composite video out header.. the pi zero 2 doesn't have it on headers ,but on solder pads. I'm sure someone will design a new cart if this is the case though
Not the only problem. Both my mini HDMI cable and a mini HDMI adapter I tried won't work with the Flirc case without some sort of modification. The case material is just thick enough to prevent both my mini HDMI cable and mini HDMI adapter from plugging in completely and making a solid connection, thus preventing the display from working.
Here comes Vulkan! Here comes Vulkan! Right down driver support lane! Pi foundation's done it they have granted us with huge performance gains! All the- overheating has been solved thanks to numerous firmware updates! (da da da) The raspberry pi 4's 3D performance is actually insane!
ah but what about testing out the usb host mode in a future video? will you be getting around to comparing that? i mean for compatibility on difficult devices, vs the original zero v1s, and against the rpi4. because it has to be somewhere closer to one model than the other model. and very much would like to know which! hehe. many thanks for these videos series BTW 👍

I tried this too, did many stress tests, but did not get so lucky, only could obtain 1.2GHz with no overvoltage. However, i noticed my PI always crashes when cpu is more than 45C, even though there is forced cooling with heatsink on it.

@ETA PRIME Did you try the memory as some of the benches indicate it seems slow. The Pi 3 was 1GB LPDDR2 (900 MHz) but don't even have a spec for the Zero2
@ETA PRIME just been overclocking mine and @ 1.2Ghz no overclock needed but my tiny passive heatsink soon gets to 70'C. I have been wondering though as we have a clean rear pcb that silicon adhesive isn't conductive that a large rear heatsink can be applied.

@@ETAPRIME The most recent RetroPie weekly build works fine, wifi/BT works. You do lose sound on the GPi case tho but I doubt it'll take people long to sort that out.
Interesting video, thanks. Does the Flirc alu case spread the 69°C temperature of the SoC over the whole case? because if it does, the case would be too hot to be manipulated?
It draws 4V*2,5A=10W, this is too ltittle to feel it, unless you touch directly the tiny CPU-surface... If it´s bad for a cpu doesn´t mean it is bad for your skin, the cpu is tiny, much smaller that its outside dimensions, so 10W can really cook it... Exept of it all, a heat sink doesn´t take the heat and stores it, till its huge mass days later reaches 69°C, it dissipates it to the environment instead, almost as fast as it´s generated, cause it´s aluminium. Still, don´t hold it hours-long in your hands, cause your hands will then block the heat-dissipation, so, it should be well-aired, don´t bury it under stuff on your desk.
They were available yesterday. Adafruit had over 100. When they have less than 100 of something it shows the specific number... Sold out now though. They sold all of them within an hour or two. They do have an email alert that will email you when they have more.

With a 2.5 or 3 amp power supply would this pi be able to drive the official RPi 4 case fan? Maybe sitting on top of that heat sink? Without a case, of course. A little GPIO pin soldering never hurt anyone, right? 😅
@@AlistairBrugsch He said it himself, but a look on the inside, when he installs the Pi inside, shows that is all aluminium... After all, it´s the bottom part where the cpu touches the case to dissipate its heat... I wonder how aluminium affects wifi compared to magnetic metals (iron, steel), actually...
@@klausbrinck2137 aluminium acts like a faraday cage just as ferrous metals do so there needs to be something somewhere to let the radio waves out. Even unibody iPhones with all alu chassis have a plastic strip for radio to pass through

Hi
Also, sudo is always pronounced like sudoku in my head. Never understood those who do sue-do. We're already an over litigious society.
Never underpower your units. Go 2x as much as you think is necessary. Don't build things to fail.
Sudo or sudu? (Su-doh Su-Due)
sudo = switch users do, so it's pronounced like the word "do" (or "due" from your choices)
I can't seem to find the zero 2 on amazon. The link in your description gives me the same result I get when I search for it, which is basically just pi 4 and pi zero kits. Anybody no where else I can get one or have a working amazon link?
It's not available in most stores yet, the ones that had them are out of stock, the stores I buy from says it'll be available in December.
It's halloween, 666 likes on the video lol

Okay, the 'sudu' is driving me nuts. it's 'sudO'!
sudo = switch users do. He's saying it right.
@@AAjax While that is what it represents, the shortened form is meant to allude to the word 'pseudo' since it is a pseudo-user that results from it.
