Fans fail too. The heat dissipated will probably shorten the lifetime of the board. At $35 who cares though? And you have more to worry about from the SD stora

The RPi needs an SSD. :)
- unixhero 7y agoJust get an Intel NUC
- inetsee 7y agoA quick look at Newegg shows an Intel NUC that includes a CPU, memory, and an SSD at over $500. I don't think so.
- ja27 7y agoI put together a little Gigabyte Brix box (GB-BLCE-4105-BW) for $212 shipped. 2.5 GHz 4 core Celeron, 8GB RAM, 250GB SSD. Not a bad little PC.
- SkyPuncher 7y agoFlip side, I almost pulled the trigger on one from Amazon yesterday for $118. They had $500 options, but I didn't need it.
- universenz 7y agoI know right? People need to quit suggesting an Intel NUC as an alternative to $35 RPi.
- tuananh 7y agoadding up case, charger, a decent sd card and the pi is way above 35$
- unixhero 7y agoI am one of those people, and I do this whenever people want more performance, connectivity or anything else that the PI 3 or PI 4 doesn't have. Then in my view a logical alternative is to man up and pay the reasonable price for an Intel NUC to achieve the solution one is looking for.
- ekianjo 7y agoA used NUC with a Celeron CPU can be had for 70 usd these days and is way faster than any Raspberry Pi.
- mlonkibjuyhv 7y agoHow's the reliability of those these days? At a previous gig I witnessed about a 15% failure rate within 3 years.
