It‘s a board for DIY Projekts, that means you can‘t replace a full pc experience with any raspberry pi. There‘s not many cases whe‘re you need so much power for Projekts. In most cases the Pi 3B is the best value for DIY. Most cheaper mini Pc‘s are better for retro gaming.
@mcklient6460 most mini pc's also draw 10 times the power and require active cooling while the pi5 can be powered of passive cooling with a chonky heatsink, the capabilities of the pi5 should not be underestimated.
No, it's different from the RP2040. The RP1 “southbridge” is responsible for most of the I/O functions on the Raspberry Pi 5. By delegating the majority of the I/O to a separate southbridge, the main SoC can be more straightforward. This simplification leads to reduced costs, risks, and development time. Additionally, this design can be reused for future Raspberry Pi models. As with most things in Raspberry Pi land, it is about saving money.
Love the introduction of the Pi 5. Just wish it wasn't shadowed by the lie pushed by raspberry in March of 2023 that stated they had a shortage of Pi4's because of supply disruptions. Clearly they stopped production of Pi4's to begin manufacturing of the Pi5's.
This dude is cool as hell.
From what I’ve read, yeah, it’s great that we have pcie but it’s slow. 😞
Great, i will buy one, or maybe two.
Poor design - no NVMe slot?
Yes with pcie extension
Great video, thanks.

Is rk3588 greater or not than this broadcom?
Will it run n64 and ps2 games smoothly?
N64 definitely. PS2 probably once the emulators are optimized for it.
Does RP1 have PIO like RP2040?

Actually it has one. And a spare ARM M3 controller. May be additional fun :)
Will the be a CM5 that is pin compatible with CM4?
We don't have public info on this yet.
no h264 decoding, this will consume some power on video playback
It has h265 decoding.
Yup that’s right (h.264 predates iPhone), but as @harleyn3089 pointed out they’ve got h.265

What evidence do you have for this ?
