The 8 GB model is for workloads that combine many services.<\/p>\n<h3>Can it replace a desktop PC?<\/h3>\n<p>For web browsing, email and office work, yes. Booting from a USB 3.0 SSD significantly improves responsiveness.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you connect two screens?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, thanks to the two micro-HDMI outputs, up to 4K.<\/p>\n<h3>Which power supply should I use?<\/h3>\n<p>A USB-C 5 V 3 A power supply minimum; the official 15.3 W power supply is designed for this board.<\/p>\n<h3>Does Home Assistant run on it?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, Home Assistant recommends a Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 with at least 2 GB of RAM.<\/p>\n<p>Compare all models in our Raspberry Pi comparison table.
