Comment on Can a Raspberry Pi 5 with 8 GB of RAM handle my needs?
AlexPewMaster@lemmy.zip 6 months agoIs a Pentium powerful enough? I recently found a YouTube channel called “Wolfgang’s Channel” and he also has a home server with a Pentium. He says it is plenty enough for these kind of tasks.

If that’s not powerful enough a raspberry pi isn’t either, that CPU ranks slightly higher than the one on a pi 5 cpubenchmark.net/…/ARM-Cortex-A76-4-Core-2400-MHz…
Also I don’t know how I forgot about this (since it’s what I do a lot of the times), but you can buy from other Amazon’s in Europe, for example in Spain you can get this CPU www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Core+i5-65… which is almost double the benchmark of a Pi for 127 amzn.eu/d/6UwsUqf
Those mini PCs are awesome, the only reason my home server isn’t one of them is because I have a 3.5" HDD which doesn’t fit in them, but I’m looking to switch to some other alternative because the franken-desktop I have now uses too much power for what it’s doing.
