10 years ago, I bought this wonderful and fast Intel i5-2500 processor. It was not the best on the market, but still had the best cost-performance ratio. I only replaced it this year, because it was the first computer I considered Good Enough. Now in Geekbench 6, it has single-core performance of 587 and multi-core performance of 1707. Raspberry Pi 5 on video has better single core performance and similar multi-core performance. We should appreciate that moment. I just wish that one beautiful day, I'll wake up, and there exists a Laptop bare bones with a slot for Raspberry Pi 5. 🛌💻👀💫
I just want to say thank you for all of your hard work on reviewing and testing all kinds of hardware during these years. I look forward to watching your videos
ExplainingComputers recently did a video doing benchmarks between the pi 4 and pi 5. It would be awesome to get your scores on the same benchmarks for the 3Ghz Pi 5. Adding the scores for an overclocked pi 4 would be a cherry on top.
They already have the tooling in place to switch to 8nm, Eben said this was just a cost decision so it won't be long until 8nm is cost effective for them. Rockchip are on 8nm.@@user-qy2wf2lt6v
With the price of Raspberry Pi 5 now it is no longer a cheap hobbiest board. Been reading a lot of articles and seeing comments on how many people are done with PIs and have gone the pc route and are using virtual machines instead. It was fun while it lasted.
$60 is still cheaper than anything comparable. And Once they release the 2GB version that one will be $45 which is a sweet spot for me. Emulation doesn't need RAM anyways.
Well, if you are trying to learn software development and managing linux, then a Pi is probably the wrong thing to begin with, especially if you already have a PC. But, if you are tying to learn robotics, physical computing, etc, then a Pi or similar is the way to go.
@PutlerHuyIo i did not find any pi 5 for 60 dollars. i bought a tiny pc that can do all that and more ,right now i'm gettinhmg ready to install debian and windows 11
Still unable to get the Pi4? I think they refilled some stock (although not by much?). At least where I live some stores that were with very low stock or just out of it, seemed to have refilled a bit
I saw Jeff's comment on another rpi 5 overclocking video, and he explained that the rpi5 that he got was relatively older, and it's possible that other reviewers got more up to date units, so more representative of the consumer units. The video I saw Jeff's comment was able to do 3.1 on the cpu and 1000 on the gpu
@benargee true, I completely understand silicone lottery, but early preproduction units are usually less capable of good overclocks as not everything has been finalized
@@sovo121216nm isn't ancient, it's cheap and dependable. For low-end chips in budget hardware it makes a lot of sense to go for something like this. Intel has 20nm-class parts launching as a part of Meteor Lake this year, used because it's a dirt cheap node that can make interposers for cheap. My best guess is something like TSMC 12nm or Samsung 8nm for a next-gen Pi6, as by then both of those nodes will be close to the age of this 16nm process.
@@DigitalJedi It is ancient for general purpose computing, of course you will have washing machines using a worse process. And it isn't cheap either, or at least the RPi Foundation isn't making it cheap, the RPi5 base model is almost twice the price of the base RPi4. For a little bit more you can get the Orange Pi 5 with the 8nm RK3588, which is a lot more powerful than the RPi5.
@@sovo1212 According to Broadcom the BCM2712 is made by TSMC on their 16nm process node, which is only just now a 7-yeah-old node. That's not a very old node all things considered, given that Nvidia's Ampere cards were made on an almost 3-year-old node at Samsung and Intel stuck to 14nm for almost 7 years as well. It's obviously not going to be as cheap as 28nm used for the Pi4, but given that TSMC is actively trying to get customers off nodes that age this is probably as cheap as they could get it.
Are you going to show the true specs of the pi4 on the metric board and how it compares to the pi5? This video and toms hardware shows the original pi4 in its non overclocked state and not the updated firmware version. The pi4 clocks at 1.8ghz stock and goes up to 2.5ghz before it throttles. I think that’s a big deciding metric being left out
Pushing it with a stress test will quickly make the Raspberry Pi 5 thermal throttle (which triggers at 82°C), dropping the CPU speed in an attempt to keep the CPU cool. Under stress, we hit 86.7°C (7 Watts) and saw the CPU throttle from 2.4 GHz down to 1.5 GHz. from toms hardware. at your 76 degrees cel u were pretty much at max limit
likely not, this channel isn't interested in providing hard data comparisons other than benchmarks and emulation FPS. his example of minecraft where he said "I didn't test this non overclocked but here it is anyways, looks good to me" proves he doesn't care enough about providing data to make real decisions on
@@sweatbox128 I’ll make a video. I’ve been noticing some inconsistency. Even followers in one of my retropie gaming groups noticed the toms hard ware over lock was missing the same data
This is an amazing piece of hardware but I would like a comparison of similar intel chips that consume the same amount of watts on windows and compare performance I personally love that this chips is so efficient and can get amazing emulation but let's see the competition with intel celeron laptop chips that consume the same watts
11 watts with a fan going is going to be a rough number to compete against lol. Maybe some old Atom chips or whatever they call the new Atom's these days, but to get in that range you're going to likely spend more than the pi costs so price will factor in there too
The competitor to this chip is the Intel N100 and N200, the former is a 3.4ghz quad-core (4x Gracemont) at 6W and the latter will do 3.7ghz. Either one should outpace the Pi5, but the MSRP of just the N100 is already more than this Pi setup can cost, at $128. For that extra money though you get x86, an Intel NPU (Gaussian accelerator 3.0), AVX2, and 9 PCIE3 lanes to the Pi's 1x 2.0. Enough to run any PCIE devices you can think of.
They're better. Don't get me wrong, the chip and SBC concept of the Pi is impressive but it's never been the best value proposition. You could easily get a more powerful whole PC for around the same money. You can even get an under-powered but new intel-based laptop for around this much. Modern atom-tier uses about the same amount of power and performs significantly better. I'm sure you could play back 1080p on less watts using an intel chip.
Samsung is starting to offer 10nm and 8nm at reasonable rates. I doubt we'll see Broadcom hop on that right away, as they are budget focused and like extremely proven nodes with very reliable supply systems, but other designers like RockChip already have, with the RK3588 being Samsung 8LPP 8nm.
How does box64 perform on it? I would be interested in some tests with box64, Wine and DXVK (and D8VK) to see how older Windows games perform on the Pi5 with emulation. Wine has also gotten a WoW64 implementation a while ago, so you can now run 32 bit Windows games with Wine and box64, without needing a 32 bit environment on the Linux side. P.S. DXVK 2.0 and up needs Vulkan 1.3 but the Pi 5 only seems to support Vulkan 1.2, so DXVK 1.10.3 might be needed.
For DXVK 2.0 I highly doubt that the rpi5 gpu native hw physical support 100% to function correctly Also for Directx12_1 level needed Shaders interlocks fuction for emulated directx rovs . First needed Opengl 3.3/4.x level != DX10/DX11 level.. The broadcom architecture is limited in that aspect compared with other socs vendors i.e NVIDIA tegra , qualcomm adreno , apple m1/m2.
Yeah get yourself some 20 volt tool lithium battery. Pd 12v to 24v input 5v output or what ever car charger. 12 volt car socket that except car adapter. Blade terminals stripper crimper tool.
Watts are watts. If you know it's using 5 volts and you know it's consuming 11 watts under load, you automatically know the current draw. What I mean is it doesn't matter whether it's battery or wall.
I cannot wait to get my hands on it. I got 9 pi 4 4gb running various things. My emulator is overclocked to 2.25ghz with an ice cooler. Can't wait to order a bunch of these and overclock
its very good small pc, but not good enough as main rig.. main problem with raspberry pi is to find a really useful usecase for it. as for IOT, cheaper RPI Zero is good enough..
When playing videos on TH-cam try not to move the mouse. Pi4/5 can 1080p/60. It’s the desktop/Chrome that’s catching it out. If you don’t move the mouse you get fewer dropped frames.
Hey, so one of the things i would like to see tested is it's h265 capabilities. I know Moonlight and Parsec use this standard to deliver a 1080p60 ultra low latency. This would be a nice test. Theres also a chrome plugin called h264ify that makes these low end computers play video WAY smoother than original, and me personally i can't live without it. Something else i would like to see, because i'm into vanlife and stuff, is if you could test these with overclock, normal clock, and also underclock, with their respective wattage drawing. And last but not least, i don't know if it is going to be available yet, but since the thruput of the sdcard has been doubled, there's a pcie, and it now has a graphics card, i would like to see Windows 10 tested on it, since these features are going to be my main goal: low wattage remote desktop, heavy youtube/twitch usage, and a full desktop computer substitute. Thanks in advance for reading, and most importantly for all the videos on low end and handheld computers you have been putting out these years. Many of your advices have led my spendings into good harbors. Thanks!
I've just received my Pi5 and editing my /boot/config.txt to overclock it hangs the system, doesn't matter if I put over or underclock values, the system wont boot and there's no way to recover it, not even swapping the sd card to another computer and deleting the added lines from the config.txt file, it needs to get reflashed again to the microsd
Those are fantastic prospects. I can't wait to get my Pi 5 in my hands. Overclocking works great too, but 76 degrees is too dangerous for me. I hope that there will soon be cases for the Raspberry Pi 5 in which you can install more powerful fans. Maybe the 3D printing community will also develop corresponding housings, I would be happy about that. Thank you for your always very interesting videos on the topic of Raspberry Pi!
This is virtually impossible, Steam doesn't have any arm64 support, like at all. This could be run inside wine/qemu, but I imagine performance would be abysmal. Like REALLY abysmal. Now if you're running Steam on Windows for Arm, it has native x86/x64 emulation. Performance might be okay for indie games. I can run Celeste decently on my Galaxy Book Go running Windows on Arm. But since there are no graphics drivers for WoA for any existing Pi, I wouldn't expect much there either.
ETA PRIME like always Simple & Clear explanation, idie 76 is bit higher I guess, How about undervoltage the pi 5? like Stock 2400mhz giving less Voltage? looking forward xD
Since they are meant for schools, for kids to use I think they're underclocked to run cool so kids do not burn themsevles, this is why they can be overclocked so high. *Remember to release the heat limits.* I know they had a setting for heat limit, but its been a long time since I've used it, & do not remember it.
I’m new to these things, but I ordered one. Do you think it would be possible to run GOG Mortal Kombat Trilogy on this? I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t, but maybe there is something I’m not considering.
about 2.4-2.6ghz for the CPU and while they don't list the GPU clock directly on the website, but the wikipedia page claims 800mhz base. A 1.0ghz GPU and 3.0ghz CPU OC should be very possible for this chip, maybe even 1.2ghz on the GPU.
Thank for the video. Ran 3Ghz, very nice! No matter what the overvoltage is, can not manage to run 1Ghz GPU for all testing. BTW, the default GPU clock is 910Mhz not 800Mhz! Why??
Hi ETA, several topics to discuss. 1) you didnt mention this, but seems like its running on a wayland compositor by default, would be nice to mention that bc thats why its so snappy and tear free. 2) this pi5 has great 4 big cores, but other than h265 decoding (not even encoding), everything has to be done on cpu, that's a regression compared to previous models, any tv box can do h265,h265,vp8 and vp9 (and some av1) on hardware or at least they have the hw to do so (so, maybe not on mainline but yes on a legacy kernel or android). 3) power consumption, we need a detailed info about the power consumption when you do that kind of stuff, like playing a video on youtube. since its on software decoding, would be a nice demo on how important its to have hw decoding capabilities. even then , h264 should be easy on cpu... vp9 or av1 will not. 4) to me ehis sbc needs a revision to use fixed 12v, 5v5A its out of the scope of many PD psu and having to buy an expensive official PSU vanish the all point of having an affordable PC. one can get 12v3A barrel jack psu around the goble for 3 bucks or so. reliability and affordability its what should matter on a power hungry rpi like rpi5.
The silicon lottery has probably been rigged in your favour with this pre-release evaluation board. Maybe quality control for general release boards won't be quite as rigorous?
Can you run a couple game servers from the pi? Minecraft, gmod, 7d2d? I’d like to see how they handle with people playing on them as a server. Big thanks!
Hi ETA, There is a mistake, i think, 3 for overvoltage is too low... The correct parameter is 6 or 7: Over_voltage=6 If you use value of 3 the pi5 won't boot...
That was a great video! please test linux games using proton lutris and box 64/86, i saw someone running AAA game on nintendo switch oc with linux(ubuntu for switch) and box86 he was able to run titan fall2 at Playble fps! i hope pi5 os on the same level if not better, also i am really excited to see what community comes up for the pi5 they may even compile a windows on arm for pi5
@@luimu agreed, i meant to say compile drivers for it, i have seen people running windows 11 on xiomi pad (Qualcomm open-source drivers are available) and even older pi4 although performance was terible on it
Awesome video as usual! I'll stick with my AMD Athlon 300U with Vega 3 graphics with swappable DDR4 ram, Pcie 3.0 x4 nvme support, sata, and can support two displays 4k 60hz.
I see you have AetherSX2 installed on Raspian. I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on how you did that as I have been struggling to get that installed without having to change OS to Ubuntu.
So does this OC bring it anywhere near the Odroid N2+ for emulation? I haven’t looked at the N2 in forever, so I have no idea how well it does these days.
It would be interesting to see video benchmark with a video encoded in h265 if it can play 4k with hardware encoding, I heard h264 is now decoded in software.
With the overclock it's about the same Geekbench 5 score as my ThinkPad T450s with a Core i5 5200U (which boosts to 2.7 GHz). So nearly comparable to mobile Broadwell CPUs, probably a bit slower clock-for-clock.
That's actually really really impressive. Microsoft would be smart to work with Broadcom to get proper drivers for Windows on Arm, I run a Galaxy Book Go, and it might get the Arm version of Windows in the hands of a MUCH bigger audience.
But it's arm. It takes probably half the power your Thinkpad does, In 1/10th of the space, and can have attachments to be used to directly control hardware without software conversation and overhead. Different strokes
This SBC is really launching up. Can you try to up the ante with using water cooling like with the Pi4 or that would only improve the temps, not the clock speed?
That's also software bloat, isn't it? I remember watching someone use the original Linux Distro for the Pi 1 and, well, it wasn't 'snappy' but it was usable.
This is an embarrassment to the Pi foundation to release SBC that drops frames on 1080p TH-cam video in 2023. Pi5 is not the only SBC available on the market and we have alternatives that run better than the Pi5.
If it can't even play 1080p/60 without dropped frames, it's still junk hardware. This is 2023, not 2013...ETA Prime needs to stop being a shill for poor hardware that's even more expensive and has a small fan that will eventually need replacing.
I was hoping they would have at least matched the Orange Pi 5 CPU and memory specs, I am currently using the OPi5 32Gb for my games emulation and I cant even see me replacing my RPi4 with a RPi5 as the tasks it performs at the moment are running OK.

I've just received my Pi5 and editing my /boot/config.txt to overclock it hangs the system, doesn't matter if I put over or underclock values, the system wont boot and there's no way to recover it, not even swapping the sd card to another computer and deleting the added lines from the config.txt file, it needs to get reflashed again to the microsd
There is an entire generation of engineers on their way with a Raspberry Pi and some duct tape....
Love the plant! 🪴
Wonder how far you can push that overclock? .... I think we kinda wanna see it.
Those are fantastic prospects. I can't wait to get my Pi 5 in my hands. Overclocking works great too, but 76 degrees is too dangerous for me. I hope that there will soon be cases for the Raspberry Pi 5 in which you can install more powerful fans. Maybe the 3D printing community will also develop corresponding housings, I would be happy about that. Thank you for your always very interesting videos on the topic of Raspberry Pi!
Also want to see how it is like in the case which if i remember correctly uses a different fan
I'd like to see some Steam games running on this. I know it probably won't be able to play much, but I would like to see what this could play.
You’d be surprised
I can think of a few low level steam games that could probably run on this
This is virtually impossible, Steam doesn't have any arm64 support, like at all. This could be run inside wine/qemu, but I imagine performance would be abysmal. Like REALLY abysmal. Now if you're running Steam on Windows for Arm, it has native x86/x64 emulation. Performance might be okay for indie games. I can run Celeste decently on my Galaxy Book Go running Windows on Arm. But since there are no graphics drivers for WoA for any existing Pi, I wouldn't expect much there either.
@@JosephHalderETA' s got a vid running some steam games on Radxa Rock 5b, I'd think at least some things would do ok.
Raspberry pi with the cooler looks so cool :)
ETA PRIME like always Simple & Clear explanation, idie 76 is bit higher I guess,
How about undervoltage the pi 5? like Stock 2400mhz giving less Voltage? looking forward xD
i love this Raspberry PI 5 3.0 GHZ
perfect Bro Thanks ..
I would love to see some box86/box64 tests!
Foundation: this is the most incredible pi!
Then proceeds to drop 1080p video like a g3 imac
Since they are meant for schools, for kids to use I think they're underclocked to run cool so kids do not burn themsevles, this is why they can be overclocked so high. *Remember to release the heat limits.* I know they had a setting for heat limit, but its been a long time since I've used it, & do not remember it.
I’m new to these things, but I ordered one. Do you think it would be possible to run GOG Mortal Kombat Trilogy on this? I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t, but maybe there is something I’m not considering.
Can't wait until newer SBCs start coming out with 8-16GB RAM that are even cheaper than the Orange Pi 5 that we have right now
I noticed alot of people tested windows 11/10 on the raspberry pi 4 I would love to see you do a video like that for the pi 5 with the 3ghz overclock.
Love your Nazar Wristband 👍
Is PS2 emulation going to be possible?
That's nice but, what's the stock clockspeed of the CPU and GPU in this device? I didn't quite remember it so I'll have to go look it up.
about 2.4-2.6ghz for the CPU and while they don't list the GPU clock directly on the website, but the wikipedia page claims 800mhz base. A 1.0ghz GPU and 3.0ghz CPU OC should be very possible for this chip, maybe even 1.2ghz on the GPU.
You should see how it performs with WoR Project and check the Windows performance on this thing
Thank for the video.
Ran 3Ghz, very nice!
No matter what the overvoltage is, can not manage to run 1Ghz GPU for all testing.
BTW, the default GPU clock is 910Mhz not 800Mhz! Why??
Try with force_turbo=1
You should be able to boot with 1GHz GPU this way.
@@ivankyurkchiev7374 Thanks! I mean, can not run GPU at 1GHz for all the tests. Some tests will hang.
Try same tests with force_turbo=1.
I have mine at 3GHz and 1.1 GPU without over_voltage
Hi ETA, several topics to discuss. 1) you didnt mention this, but seems like its running on a wayland compositor by default, would be nice to mention that bc thats why its so snappy and tear free. 2) this pi5 has great 4 big cores, but other than h265 decoding (not even encoding), everything has to be done on cpu, that's a regression compared to previous models, any tv box can do h265,h265,vp8 and vp9 (and some av1) on hardware or at least they have the hw to do so (so, maybe not on mainline but yes on a legacy kernel or android). 3) power consumption, we need a detailed info about the power consumption when you do that kind of stuff, like playing a video on youtube. since its on software decoding, would be a nice demo on how important its to have hw decoding capabilities. even then , h264 should be easy on cpu... vp9 or av1 will not. 4) to me ehis sbc needs a revision to use fixed 12v, 5v5A its out of the scope of many PD psu and having to buy an expensive official PSU vanish the all point of having an affordable PC. one can get 12v3A barrel jack psu around the goble for 3 bucks or so. reliability and affordability its what should matter on a power hungry rpi like rpi5.
The silicon lottery has probably been rigged in your favour with this pre-release evaluation board. Maybe quality control for general release boards won't be quite as rigorous?
Can you run a couple game servers from the pi? Minecraft, gmod, 7d2d? I’d like to see how they handle with people playing on them as a server. Big thanks!
Can you comment the performance of a raspi5 NAS (for rd and wr) using the fastest USB 3 to HDD/SSD adapter(s)?
Next ETA Prime video: Liquid Nitrogen Pi5 go brrrr
omg ive been watching when u had 50k and u got 1 million good job bro
What cooling are you using on this raspberry pie 5? How are the temperatures?
Hi ETA,
There is a mistake, i think, 3 for overvoltage is too low...
The correct parameter is 6 or 7:
Over_voltage=6
If you use value of 3 the pi5 won't boot...
Very cool! I ordered mine as soon as they went live. But can it SW:RS2 on Gamecube?
Can you please give us the music of your intro? Very relaxing.
Was expecting this to be your Odin 2 video, os that still due out today?
I saw that Diablo 2 LOD install ;)
That was a great video! please test linux games using proton lutris and box 64/86, i saw someone running AAA game on nintendo switch oc with linux(ubuntu for switch) and box86 he was able to run titan fall2 at Playble fps! i hope pi5 os on the same level if not better, also i am really excited to see what community comes up for the pi5 they may even compile a windows on arm for pi5
One does simply not compile windows (except xp). You would need to have the source code for it to compile it and windows source isn't available.
@@luimu agreed, i meant to say compile drivers for it, i have seen people running windows 11 on xiomi pad (Qualcomm open-source drivers are available) and even older pi4 although performance was terible on it
well, definitely upgrading my JEllyfin server from a base Pi4 to this
Wow Thanks for this vdideo.
Awesome video as usual! I'll stick with my AMD Athlon 300U with Vega 3 graphics with swappable DDR4 ram, Pcie 3.0 x4 nvme support, sata, and can support two displays 4k 60hz.
You should make a video on trying to run minecraft bedrock edition on the overclocked Raspberry Pi 5
And it will become even better when the newest pi os launches (bookworm)
The thumbnail is so funny.
This rivals my current desktop haha
Hey man is it possible for a video that shows android on the pi 5 with emulation and gaming(genshin, pubg, etc)?
Can we play Xbox remote play with Pi 5 with windows 10 ? I tried with Pi 4 but it's unplayable with its cpu
When are you gonna test Killer Instinct!? 😁
Orange pi 5 vs Raspberry pi 5?
I see you have AetherSX2 installed on Raspian. I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on how you did that as I have been struggling to get that installed without having to change OS to Ubuntu.
Poor thing: not even on sale and already overclocked : )
So does this OC bring it anywhere near the Odroid N2+ for emulation? I haven’t looked at the N2 in forever, so I have no idea how well it does these days.
I'd like to know how power consumption compares
Looking forward to overclocking with pcie nvme drive
Is the gpu capable of HDR? That would be the icing on the cake.
Kodi and LibreELEC can use HDR with the Pi5, so yup 👍
Yes it can
It would be interesting to see video benchmark with a video encoded in h265 if it can play 4k with hardware encoding, I heard h264 is now decoded in software.
What about things like saturn emulation? Does that run well?
With the overclock it's about the same Geekbench 5 score as my ThinkPad T450s with a Core i5 5200U (which boosts to 2.7 GHz). So nearly comparable to mobile Broadwell CPUs, probably a bit slower clock-for-clock.
That's actually really really impressive. Microsoft would be smart to work with Broadcom to get proper drivers for Windows on Arm, I run a Galaxy Book Go, and it might get the Arm version of Windows in the hands of a MUCH bigger audience.
But it's arm. It takes probably half the power your Thinkpad does, In 1/10th of the space, and can have attachments to be used to directly control hardware without software conversation and overhead. Different strokes
Exactly@@Weneedaplague
How does 3ghz cortex a76 still have dropped frames on youtube wtf and does it not have hardware accelrated decoding on the gpu?
over_voltage=3
arm_freq=3000
gpu_freq=1000
OC to 3GHz and can only run Chain of Olympics at native resolution, I doubt it can do much. Android devices today are just way more powerful.
Can you test Raspberry pi OS with the KDE Plasma desktop theme? All the transparencies, window animations, effects, etc. Enabled.. Thanks!
Raspberry 3 was the last raspberry pi platform
This SBC is really launching up. Can you try to up the ante with using water cooling like with the Pi4 or that would only improve the temps, not the clock speed?
How does the raspberry pi 5 compares in perfotmance (with similar tests) compared to my surface go pentium for example? Thanks
Can you test RGB-PI and/or PI2JAMMA?
Really liking the snappy window opening, resizing, minimizing. Going back to earlier models will be rough after this
That's also software bloat, isn't it?
I remember watching someone use the original Linux Distro for the Pi 1 and, well, it wasn't 'snappy' but it was usable.
Will a Android OS run on the Pi? It would be great to have a cheap device that could access the Play store to run games.
A tv box maybe?
That heatsink has a flaw design....
This is an embarrassment to the Pi foundation to release SBC that drops frames on 1080p TH-cam video in 2023. Pi5 is not the only SBC available on the market and we have alternatives that run better than the Pi5.
If it can't even play 1080p/60 without dropped frames, it's still junk hardware. This is 2023, not 2013...ETA Prime needs to stop being a shill for poor hardware that's even more expensive and has a small fan that will eventually need replacing.
Because that's what heros do
Please make comparision video with rk3588 board in similar price as Rpi 5
I was hoping they would have at least matched the Orange Pi 5 CPU and memory specs, I am currently using the OPi5 32Gb for my games emulation and I cant even see me replacing my RPi4 with a RPi5 as the tasks it performs at the moment are running OK.
is Orange Pi compatible with Retropie?
