This honestly. I don't know from a production level, but it seems like this is a far cry from the old $35 price point, and to remove the composite cable. I don't understand why you need 4k on a Pi... if anything I'd much rather this stick with 1080p performance if it could have knocked things down in cost. $60 is no longer an impulse buy. It's now something I have to make as a calculated decision. Cause two PI-5's can be the same as an old desktop which will be a lot more useful.

I really don't like, that it has a fan by default now. Of cause there will be third-party passive coolers, but I think that no moving parts was a key selling point for the older models.

[@justadude8716]

To add on, I think the selling point was also the fact that often you didn't need one! Sure the Rpi5 is much faster then the RPi4, but that extra performance came at a cost of power input and size.

[@kneekoo]

The fan is optional. The Pi 5 will throttle to stay safe under heavy load, so it can even run without active cooling, but cases doing passive cooling can prevent throttling. The extra cooling requirement actually started with the Pi 4 - more performant chips generate more heat. I started buying FLIRC cases since the Raspberry Pi 3 because I prefer using my Pis both safely and quietly.

[@Sphyxx]

The annoying part is that the newer models are just going further and further from being accessible kind of going against the idea of raspberry pi, I just hope they can keep the weaker models and still manufacture them.

[@colonelfustercluck486]

should be able to electrically, but unsure if any one has made a case or adaptor to do it neatly. Currently Argon Forty makes a die-cast alloy case (V2 case) for the Raspberry 4B that you add their M.2 base to..... then you can install your SATA (M.2) SSD (eg: a Kingston A400 or WD Green) and yes it boots. I'm using one. (They also do a NVMe base for that case, I am not sure of the name for it.) But the Pi 5 is physically different from the Pi 4B.... so you might have to wait for a neat and tidy solution for now. At this point I can see bare circuit boards, connector cables and plug and sockets and SSD cards on a bench....

[@pjpleiss]

I am curious about the transcoding performance and such for Plex. The PCIe extension has a lot of promise. I've been fighting current hardware prices because I want to go back to using a closet NAS. The Pi4 just didn't have the stones I needed, and anything MiniITX is insanely overpriced.

[@JamesCusano]

So far it looks like AVC/264 transcode speeds are going to be slower since the hardware AVC is gone, but probably faster than the Pi 4 on Plex since they never supported the Pi 4 encoder anyway. If Plex chooses to support the new HEVC/265 hardware then speeds are going to be much better there. Still no hardware AV1, so it’s probably not going to be able to stream those transcodes above like 720p. The Pi 5 can make a decent media player, but there are better media server options at a similar price point and power consumption level.

Now to make a "supercomputer" cluster and bench it to see what kind of performance it has vs all the ones people built using the Pi 4 😁

[@xdarrenx]

bit of an odd take since a cluster's main characteristic is power through having more units with less performance per price, instead of 1 or 2 strong performing units (like a desktop or traditional server), in this case a rack of chinese clones will outperform the entire raspberry pi brand->line unites for the price. Reliability specifically is not relevant because you think it's bad because it's Chinese, because 1 of the major advantages is specifically in cluster computing, that multiple nodes can fail, and the cluster keeps operating just a bit slower until you swapped the faulty units. You price will be lower and your parallel computing power greater per price point with Chinese clones

[@giannismentz3570]

Seems awesome. Tbh I'm not a fan of those moving parts, the active cooling. You might wanna use the RPi someplace other than the living room, and moving parts will break. They should make an equivalent passive cooling system, if a cooling system is needed. (unless ofc this is a panametric fan they are using, which is unbreakable). The power button seems convenient but it's not really, I'd rather they had 2 extra pins for it, to connect your own doordle spring or handle it programmatically, which fits better the RPi I think, for what it is and its intended uses.

I'd be really interested to see a Pi 5 cluster that can handle a decent LLM

[@oksowhat]

if LMstudio can run LLMs on consumer hardware, and its available for M1, i dont see why i can't be made available for arm linuxes, with it i believe even a single RP5 can run a 7b model at ~10-15 token/min

[@WhatTheBleep24]

A while ago, I realized an old device I had had a raspberry 3 in it. Today I formatted the SD card, replaced it with 32 GB, and installed the OS and really liked it. I think Raspberry Pi OS is the cleanest, nicest, simplest operating system I have seen… and I’ve used a lot. So I now really like the raspberry pi.

[@SmirkInvestigator]

Got some old gen 2s I’ve abandoned. server kept crashing over a few days running. The lag using a monitor was painful. Will check this out for pocketable homelabs but hope a competitor makes inference practical SBCs off the wake of this release.

[@VariusSep]

Great job and thank you!

[@yashgupta7730]

@NetworkChuck Could you do an video on setting up an *arr suite using docker compose on a raspberrypi. I think a tutorial like this would be really helpful for those of us who are getting tired of streaming websites charging exorbitant amounts to stream “Linux ISO”.

[@adrianstealth340]

Not there yet , wish they’d hurry up , fingers crossed for the pi 6

[@alistairblaire6001]

This is going to be a great upgrade for my nas. I went from an old PC to a Pi 4 and it was definitely a perf downgrade even over 1 gbit. I think this will be just fast enough to match my old PC nas setup but it will sip power doing it.

[@KewaiiGamer]

Still not 2.5Gbe or more..

[@DiegoAvila-in5db]

amazing what this tiny thing can do it always amazes me

[@Stabbyson]

After seeing that video of a guy modding a switch to run box86 games, Im SUPER hyped to see what we can do with the Pi 5 Not because we should, but because we can

[@snoozy355]

Thanks Chuck Looking forward to the follow up video - using Pi 5 for server-based activities. Like, I dunno, running a bunch of docker images? And managing a RAID something? Add VPN server and possibly Homebridge or Home assistant? Basically all the things I want a home server to be cheers!

[@MSM5500]

Raspberry Pi is almost useless for data storage application since they have never implemented a native PCI-E SATA interface on their boards unlike Hard Kernel Odroid and Banana Pi which have been around for ages already.

[@_Jayanky_]

@@MSM5500 The Pi5 adds an external PCI-E lane as one of it's new interfaces, you could reasonably get many SATA ports through a hat. Officially it's a PCI-E 2.0 lane but it is able to do 3.0 speeds (just not certified for those speeds) through some configuration.

[@18minimus18]

Can't wait for the compute module, the pi is good but limited big time

[@KingBjord]

Could you set it up for an OBS stream to twitch? Wondering how good this would be for a mini streaming PC vs the pi 4

[@velenkosinimmkhabela]

"This video is absolutely too step ahead. What a wonderful review about Pi 5 .... well-presented content. I like the monitor that you used please kindly share it model

[@tinytonymaloney7832]

I wish I knew what you was on about, must be great to be a geek. All I want to do is learn programming, perhaps wire in monitor cameras around outside of house for security and design a form of heating monitor program. Alas, alak, im clueless and would love to fond a video for amateurs like myself to get started.

[@tldyesterday]

I just recently ordered a 4. Great.

[@damian8mac8]

Man.. you are the teacher that I need

[@kboy5189]

Great. Only thing I miss in raspberry pi is physical kill switches for wifi, bt, camera etc. Not sure why they don't have it.

[@virgilmcmayers4974]

Thanks for nice video! I have a couple of questions. How many serial ports in total RPi 5 have? Is the dedicated serial port is always (after each reboot) remains same in terms of naming? How its named? Have you tried to use it as a console port? Is the GPIO can handle two ports or Bluetooth is eating one of it? Thank you!

[@garethwhtam]

I love your video, Do you have any plan to make a ESXi install for Pi 5, it look different with Pi 4 installation

[@dogbog99]

I can’t wait to see how this does as a media player, now I’m t has HDR this is possibly going to overtake the NVIDIA shield for video playback and media centre software

[@michel-it8218]

Hello Chuck, I couldn’t find a quick guide on KZbin explaining how to install Windows 10 or Windows 11 on Raspberry Pi 5. I would greatly appreciate it if you could create a detailed and engaging guide on this topic, perhaps to enjoy with a good coffee.

[@BrianThomas]

At 15:52 into the video. How does the Orange Pi 5 stand with this same test? I realize it has more cores, but I'm curious how well it performs over the Pi 5 with dollars versus performance.

[@jean-francoiscantin9790]

I just love how those specs are going to be absurd in 2 to 5 years. But right now I WAAANT OOONNEEE :) Order placed!

[@TREXYT]

Hi, Should i buy a raspberry 3, 4 or 5 for ad blocking dns at home ?

[@maciejkag2735]

IMO they shouldn't add onboard storage in the future. SD cards are really comfortable to swap out and quickly change the OSes, it would also take more space which is crucial for a microcomputer

[@kernelpickle]

I’d bet if you got it setup to boot from a real SSD using a SATA to USB connector, that it would probably run a hell of a lot smoother. If it has PCIe 2.0, then there are going to be people adding NVMe storage. Maybe by the next generation they’ll put an NVMe connector on the back, so you can use one of those little ones like they used in the Steam Deck-because if they do, that’ll make them legit low-end PCs. Obviously you’re gonna want to keep the SD reader, but I think adding the connector is way more useful than even those camera connectors. My primary use for these are for emulation, and there was a lot of stuff the 4 came really close to running, so I’m looking forward to the added grunt being able to make certain games functional.

[@MetaJamm]

This is ultimate retrogaming device. Hope cube, wii, and ps2 will run flawless.

[@artimus7525]

Can’t wait, but hopefully there’s some sort of quality control to combat against scalpers.
