Overview
The Raspberry Pi 5 16GB is the ultimate evolution of the world’s most popular credit-card-sized computer. Featuring a 64-bit quad-core Arm Cortex-A76 processor running at 2.4GHz, this board delivers a desktop-class experience. With a massive 16GB of LPDDR4X-4267 SDRAM, it handles multitasking, memory-intensive AI models, and large-scale data processing without breaking a sweat.
The Pi 5 also introduces Raspberry Pi Silicon (RP1), which handles I/O capabilities to provide faster USB speeds and, for the first time ever, a dedicated PCIe 2.0 interface for connecting high-speed NVMe SSDs.
Key Features
Desktop-Level CPU: 2.4GHz Quad-core Cortex-A76 with Cryptographic extensions.
