RE: Raspberry Pi 4 Heat and Enclosure Issues

in #raspberrypi5 years ago

nice one... I am stuck with my lovely pi3 that works amazingly. I was thinking although to take the pi4 but will see... thanks for your post if I will get one I will ensure to take also the case with fan for the 16$

Sort:  

the only reason I can see to run a pi4 was for kodi, gaming, or for a cheap personal computer.

and they are really so much better at those things.

but beyond that.. well I still run a pi2 that works great for most things.

Well if I don't get wrong, the pi2 doesn't have the wireless antenna so it works only on wired. I think that was the main reason why I did move to Pi3 long time ago. It has been working greatly so far :)

correct. pi2 requires a usb wifi card.

pi3 had a pretty big boost in performance as well, but as a music server/storage server.. pi2 works great... wired in. I also have it running a small lcd display.. basically all that tinker type stuff can be done on the pi2.

glad you are having fun with it!

sweet! In the end why change it if it works well :) have a good one buddy!
