repiv posted:But was it an error as in "oops that model doesn't actually exist" or "oops didn't mean to announce that yet"? From what I’ve read on the pi forum, the BCM2711 cpu has some issues that prevent it from utilizing more then 4GB ram.

mod sassinator posted:For what it's worth I've used maybe a dozen cables and power supplies now and never noticed a problem yet. I'm sure there are some well known cables/chargers that don't work but in my experience it's pretty smooth sailing. You shouldn't have problems with basic, non-"smart" cables.

Yeah, this seems to me like a solution for a problem that didn't exist. I never felt that going to https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/ and downloading the image was such a complex task that I needed that to be automated. It's neat that it exist and all, but I'm wondering who the intended audience is.

WarMECH posted:I just got a Pi4 this week to run Pi-Hole. It is in the "official" case, which has no vents/fans. Everything works great, better than expected, but I noticed that the web interface for Pi-Hole is showing that my temps are running between 62 and 65 C with a little "hot" icon next to it. Will this hurt in the long run? The only thing running on the device is the Pi-Hole software and it's managing my small home network of about 18 devices, so it shouldn't be working hard. The Pi4 will protect itself by throttling the CPU at around 80°c. But if you're just running PiHole I doubt you'll ever see those temperatures. So I wouldn't bother with a fan.

What is the actual usecase for this? Other then making a profit from people who will buy this without thinking because they want the biggest number.

Huh, I wonder why they handled different RAM sizes this way.

I was wondering more why a jumper like that is necessary at all. But I guess the bootloader isn't capable of detecting RAM size?

Thanks Ants posted:It's not a jumper, it's the cheapest way of indicating what RAM is on the board, no need to modify the silkscreen. Edit: aeiou posted:According to Geerling's video the jumper isn't functional. It's just an indicator to the user to see the amount of installed ram at a glance. That's kinda clever.

https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/behind-the-scenes-with-raspberry-pi-5-magpimonday/quote:We could have just used a standard PD supply, get nine volts at three amps, but then you have to do the voltage conversion on the board. That costs you area, it costs you silicon, it costs you efficiency. So, we decided to do something a little bit non-standard, which is what we often do in search of performance, and create a five-volt, five-amp profile for our power supply. Also I hope they actually check if the plugged-in cable has an e-marker chip and is capable of carrying 5A. The board isn't likely to draw that much current constantly, but still it doesn't seems like a great idea to use USB-C cable rated for 3A/10W with this board.
