Our advice: the 4 GB model is the best balance for a desktop computer or a versatile server. If you are torn between this and the Raspberry Pi 5, the latter offers 2 to 3 times more CPU power and a PCIe interface.
Compatibility and pitfalls to avoid
- Display : the outputs are micro-HDMI, so plan for a cable or adapter to HDMI.
- Power supply : 5 V 3 A minimum via USB-C; an undersized phone charger causes undervoltage warnings.
- Raspberry Pi 5 accessories not compatible: M.2 PCIe HAT, official Pi 5 case, PoE+ HAT dedicated to the Pi 5.
- USB : USB devices share a maximum of 1.2 A; for a power-hungry drive, use a powered hub.
- Cooling : under sustained load in a closed case, add cooling to avoid frequency throttling.
Recommended accessories
- official Raspberry Pi 15.3 W USB-C power supply : 5.1 V 3 A, the right rating for the Raspberry Pi 4.
- Official Raspberry Pi 4 case : protection and access to all ports.
- official micro-HDMI to HDMI cable : essential for connecting a display.
- Fan for the official Raspberry Pi 4 case: for sustained use inside the case.

Frequently asked questions
4 GB or 8 GB: which one to choose?
For a desktop or a home server, 4 GB is enough in the vast majority of cases. The 8 GB model is for workloads that combine many services.
Can it replace a desktop PC?
For web browsing, email and office work, yes. Booting from a USB 3.0 SSD significantly improves responsiveness.
Can you connect two screens?
Yes, thanks to the two micro-HDMI outputs, up to 4K.
Which power supply should I use?
A USB-C 5 V 3 A power supply minimum; the official 15.3 W power supply is designed for this board.
Does Home Assistant run on it?
Yes, Home Assistant recommends a Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 with at least 2 GB of RAM.
