Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 4GB LPDDR4 FIRST 28nm-Based QuadCore 1.5G Dual Micro HDMI Video Output Dual Band WIFI Bluetooth 2 x USB 3.0/2.0 POE Ethernet (POE Hat Need Purchase Separately)

This case looks great and fits the Pi perfectly but with the Pi4 generating more heat this needed to allow for some more heat dissipation This case looks great and fits the Pi perfectly but with the Pi4 generating more heat this needed to allow for some more heat dissipation

This works good to power the Pi4, which needs a USB-C This works good to power the Pi4, which needs a USB-C

I've used the PI 3b+ for home automation (Home assistant) and the 4 was the logical next step with the ability to boot natively from an SSD. I did find though that the processor does get very hot with the case closed (even with the heat sinks fitted - /product/SEVRBP0049/Raspberry-Pi-Aluminium-Heatsink-Set-for-Raspberry) I'd recommend going for an active cooling solution I've used the PI 3b+ for home automation (Home assistant) and the 4 was the logical next step with the ability to boot natively from an SSD.

More powerful than I expected. Having 8G RAM is great, especially as I can consolidate all my RPis to just this one now ^_^ More powerful than I expected. Having 8G RAM is great, especially as I can consolidate all my RPis to just this one now ^_^

You do need a fan and heat-sinks for the Raspberry Pi 4. Other than that it is small and has great access to the parts you need to access too. You do need a fan and heat-sinks for the Raspberry Pi 4. Other than that it is small and has great access to the parts you need to access too.

Performace-wise, I'd recommend this as it does provide more juice to the Pi (other unbranded ones often can't handle it and I get the lightning sign).

But it's bulky.. I can't plug a standard monitor cable next to it on a power outlet because of the circular wing.. it makes it too bulky :/ Performace-wise, I'd recommend this as it does provide more juice to the Pi (other unbranded ones often can't handle it and I get the lightning sign).

Playing around with making a home server, Samba, Apache, etc etc. made the thing stream music to a dedicated player, Just works. Surprising how little is needed Though I would use the 8 gig version for a future server. Though back in the day 10++ years ago I had less powerful machines doing the same job (memory and CPU).

It is strongly advised a cooling solution is needed, I bought heat-sinks fan and a case... what more can I say!

very good technology.. very good technology..

Drives the raspberries plug usb sticks and game controller! (Also charges a phone really quick) noooice, cheers pb Drives the raspberries plug usb sticks and game controller! (Also charges a phone really quick) noooice, cheers pb

Great Product for developers, with 8gb memory it gives you lot more flexibility to develop things Great Product for developers, with 8gb memory it gives you lot more flexibility to develop things

I was looking around for quite a while to find a good price for a Raspberry Pi 4 and the PB Tech price is really good.

The Raspberry Pi4 is a huge improvement from Pi 3 and older.

Make sure to get the right cables for power and display. I was looking around for quite a while to find a good price for a Raspberry Pi 4 and the PB Tech price is really good.
