Features & details
LATEST SOFTWARE SUPPORT: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and Raspbian 11 support with hardware-accelerated video playback and 3D graphics. Upstream software stack featuring the latest Linux 6.x with open source graphics and video libraries. UEFI support with GRUB sofware behaves like PCs. Direct first software support and community hub for third party help to get started. Video tutorials on YouTube for commonly asked questions.
COMPATIBILITY AND EXTENSIBILITY: Great RPi alternative with same form factor as Pi 3 Model B for re-use with existing cases and power supplies. Identically designed 40-pin header enables hardware re-use by maintaining same pins for functions like SPI, I2C, PWM, UART, and more. Powerful GPIO wiring tool, libretech-wiring-tool, is available on Github that can quickly toggle GPIOs and dynamically control dtoverlays for faster design, testing, and learning.
HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW POWER: AML-S905X-CC performs faster than a Pi 3 B+ while using half the power. It is designed with power optimizations to increase sustained performance under load and reduce failures due to input voltage and current. It is one of the first SBCs to support 4K multi-codec hardware decoding and features a highly performant OpenGL ES 2.0 GPU for accelerated 2D/3D.
OPEN SOURCE COMMITMENT: Libre Computer collaborates with software partners to create upstream infrastructure, drivers, and libraries for open-source projects such as Linux and u-boot that power our products. This enables us to support the latest software innovations created by the community and ensures that our products have the necessary security and software performance innovation for long term support.
International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions.

sorted byIt can't compete with the pi 4 but it's not meant to.
If you want to run pihole or something with an up to date kernel without breaking the bank there are worst chipsets.

But then changed my mind and swapped it to hot because after comparing, I realised that this is much cheaper than a Ps5.
Raid is needed... Asking too much...
Heat added, very good price for the hardware, I was tempted but I don't have a use case for this
