[Jeff Geerling] saw the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 and its exposed PCI-Express 1x connection, and just naturally wondered whether he could plug a GPU into that slot and get it to work. It didn’t.

The newly released Raspberry Pi 5 with BCM2712 SoC is no exception here, with Tom’s Hardware having a go at seeing how far both the CPU and GPU in the SoC can be pushed.

Geerling first applied a documented software patch that bumps the Pi's PCIe lane from version 2.0 to 3.0, providing an important bandwidth boost to a GPU that's only getting 1/8th as many PCIe ...

The Raspberry Pi 5 will gladly accept more power than the Pi 4 in service of the faster CPU and GPU. The Raspberry Pi 5’s manual even calls for a 5V 5A USB-C adapter vs. the Pi 4’s 5V 3A ...

A leading Raspberry Pi torchbearer has demonstrated games like Doom Eternal, Crysis Remastered, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Forza Horizon 4, running at 4K on the humble $50 SBC.

The Pi 5 has a number of improvements beyond the base AP and GPU, though those aren't small jumps, either. The company says its new 16-nanometer BCM2712, a 2.4 GHz quad-core 64-bit CPU, is two to ...
