I would love to see a more side by side comparison of specs. 2-3x times the speed pretty good though. The raspi 4 was just on the cusp of being usable as a main computer, I wonder how good this will be.
- phoyd 3y agoPi5 is already on Geekbench. Speed seemed to be on the ballpark of a mobile Intel i5 dual core 4xxx IIRC.
- schappim 3y agoI've used one in person. I would say that it has crossed the threashold. I've only played w/ it using a microSD card. Whilst the microSD card slot now has support for high-speed SDR104 mode (roughly twice as fast as the Pi4), I can only imagine that speeds will increase when connecting SSDs via PCIe. They like to use JS benchmarking to do this. I forgot which exact benchmark they usesed (sorry)! The RPI4 was benchmarking ~50, the PI5 was scoring about ~130. They were saying the RPI5 was scoring equivalent to a 2015 MacBook Air.

- badtension 3y agoWhat? Software getting slower faster than hardware getting faster? Impossible!

- heresie-dabord 3y ago> raspi 4 was just on the cusp of being usable as a main computer I use a Pi 400 (running Debian) as my primary dev box and access terminal to the Internet. ^_^ It definitely works for me, but I fear that you will next tell us that you need to run software that isn't compiled for ARM (e.g. Adobe graphics suite) or to connect some specific hardware, such as a centrifuge that works only with Windows drivers.
