This is the new Raspberry PI
five and it's kind of amazing. It's got a new C P U G P U custom
raspberry pi silicon, the RP one. Who are these guys? Apple and everything is like twice as
fast on the PI five U S B transfer speeds. Micro SD card transfer speeds.
It has a P C I E 2.0 interface. The RAN is faster. H D M I is better.
It has better camera connections. This thing is so powerful, they had
to make an active cooler for it. Have they ever done that before?
I don't know. It's got everything. We have a power button, frankly. That's
all I needed to know. I'll take 20. But seriously, the Raspberry
PI five is kind of amazing. Can it truly be a desktop
replacement? Can we game on this? Can we hack on this thing? We
will do a deep dive on the specs, do a few benchmarks and see how it
performs against the Raspberry PI four. I'm really excited to play with this.
Are you ready? Let's do this now. The release of the Raspberry PI
five right now is a pretty big deal. We haven't had one for four years. 2019 is when the Raspberry PI four came
out and also Eon Upton said we wouldn't have raspberry pie in 2023,
but we are going to, in fact, lemme drop that for you real quick. So you'll be able to buy a Raspberry
PI five fresh off the line I think in October, sometime in October, and you'll have two options to choose
from starting with the four gig model at $60 US and the eight gig
model at $80 us. That's right. No more two gig model. Just two options. Now let's take a deep dive into the
specs. What's making this thing tick? Why is it so great? And
it is first the C P U. We've got a whopping 2.4
gigahertz quad core 64 bit arm cortex, A 76 C P U. This thing is intense. They say it's got two to three times the
performance over the RAD rate PI four. We're going to test that here in a bit. It also has cryptographic extensions
to help with cryptographic things like security V P N encryption. Now
the G P U is also pretty crazy. We have an 800 megahertz video core
V two G P U supporting OpenGL E S 3.1 and Vulcan 1.2 and we'll
need that G P U for the dual four K 60 P H D M I output with H D R support. I told you it's like a full on desktop vc. Now I think the biggest
thing is the RP one. This is silicon design
in-house by Raspberry Pi. The RP one is their south bridge, the chip that controls the IO between
the C P U and external peripherals. So thank U S B ports, ethernet
ports storage interfaces. Now what this unlocks is
faster everything U S B speeds. Now similar to the raspberry PI four, we've got two U S B 2.0 interfaces
and two U S B 3.0 interfaces. But the U SB 3.0 can do
five gigabits per second. Simultaneous five gigabit per
second operation. Now that's crazy. That's a big deal for, I don't know,
making a raspberry pi nass, which we did. The five will blow that
one out of the water. This also enables a big change in
camera interfaces. On previous models, we had a dedicated one gigabit per second
two lane in my PI camera and display interface that's been replaced
by a pair of four lane, 1.5 gigabits per second
in my PI transceivers. This triples the total
bandwidth supporting a
combination of up to two cameras or displays. And I know some of you
are looking for onboard storage. That was something I
was kind of hoping for, but they gave us higher SSD card speeds. They say that peak SSD card
performance is doubled. They're supporting now the S D R 1 0 4
high speed mode and then this one is just kind of crazy, but they now
have a P C I E 2.0 interface. This opens up a whole new world for
high bandwidth peripherals. I mean just, oh my gosh, the projects this opens
up for us. Are you kidding me? So think like maybe network cards
connecting SSDs just faster, better everything. Now the
RAM also got a facelift. We're now rocking LP D
D R four x dash 4 2 6 7. And then of course we can't forget the
thing that was on everyone's wishlist. The power button, it's here, it's
finally here and it's a button. Press it and it does stuff. We're going to find out what
exactly it does here in a bit. Now wifi is still the same
dual band, 8 0 2 point 11 ac. We still have Bluetooth five, but we also have B L E or
Bluetooth low energy support. It also has an R T C or a realtime
clock powered by an external battery. So when your raspberry PI turns
off, it's still keep in time. Okay, the first thing I'm going to do
is set up a Raspberry Pi desktop. Here I've got a four K monitor
and another four K monitor. Now the reason I'm doing this, because the Raspberry PI five can now
support dual four K 60 frames per second outputs four K dual 60 frames
per second. Let's test it out. As I mentioned earlier, the raspberry
pie comes with an active cooler. I believe this is the first time they've
ever made one because this sucker draws so much power and produces a ton of
heat because it's doing more things, it's faster. Okay, this
thing is just cool. So it looks like it has adhesives already
on there for the components that need to be chilled off, like the R
P one, the G P U and the C P U. And I'm, I'm doing this right. Oh, it's
got a little thing, a little screw. I guess if I line those screws
up, I'm also kind of golden. It's in place I think punch it through. Punched in one, punched
in two. Okay, cool. So it kind of had a punch in spring
lock action, which was kind of nice. Now it's in there. I don't
think it's ever coming out. So you're in there for good buddy, but that's a snug little
dare I say sexy cooler. Now the last thing to do is plug in the
fan connector to the fan header on the Raspberry Pi, which I believe
that is it, right? Boom. Active cooling solution installed.
That's actually kind of awesome. It's kind of dare I say.
Cool, sorry. Alright, I've got to go to my standup meeting
with my team. I'm going to take this guy, let him join the meeting. Good morning. So I brought someone special
to the meeting today. It's
the raspberry high five. Are. You for real right now? Oh my. God, my team loved it.
Good job. Raspberry pie. So now with our active cooling installed,
let's plug it up and see what happens. Now what I'm really curious
about is I power the sucker on. Will it just come on it used to or
will it wait for me to press that power button? Okay, both H D M I cables plugged in
should give us four K 60 f p s. Definitely help. If
I had this power cable. Almost forgot that moment of truth.
Let's see if the power cable turns it on. Okay, we got a red light. Oh, there goes the active cooler and
will we get display? Oh my gosh, I can feel the air coming out of
it. That sucker's powerful. Oh, and there it goes. It's
actually not that quiet. Almost forgot to get my
keyboard out. There we go. Fresh Raspberry bi keyboard. And
of course we also need the mouse. Mouse does indeed work. I've got all
my Raspberry Pi peripherals plugged in. Alright, it's super tiny, but now it's telling us we have
some things to do to get started. Let's go So far, this seems like a pretty
typical raspberry incentive. Sorry, raspberry Pi oss. I could never get used
to saying that. I was actually curious. It did come with an SSD card already
installed and I was hoping they'd have Raspberry iOS for me already.
And they did. Thank you. Now searching for a wifi network.
It's having trouble. Okay, definitely should have found one by
now. I'm just going to click on next. We'll skip the software update.
There's no wifi and now let's restart. Listen to that thing. Ooh. Look at that. Okay, this
actually looks kind of amazing. They got a nice background
here. No wifi just yet. Lemme see if I can get a connection now. It seems to legit be having
trouble connecting to wifi. Oh, I was missing an out. We're connected.
I was getting worried about that. Now I'll go ahead and just do my system
update. Got a bunch of stuff to do. Let's go ahead and install everything
and take a look. Coffee brand. Now what I want to do is
see if the Raspberry PI five
could kind of be a desktop replacement. How does it feel to use it? And we'll do all kinds of crazy stuff now
first one thing I noticed and I tested this out is that when I press
the PI five's power button, while a system's up pressing,
it will prompt you to go, do you want to shut down? Restart. You
press it again, it just shuts down. Let's try booting it up by pressing
the button. Yep, there it goes. I'm a huge fan of the power button. I hate having to unplug
it and plug it back in. I feel like I'm breaking it every time.
This is fantastic. So what do you say? We do a few things. I dunno.
Let's watch some videos. Okay, so I'll launch a web browser here. Now notice it's not like the
snappiest thing in the world. We're on an S B C A single board computer, but it is on two four K 60
frames per second monitors. So I mean as I'm moving back and
forth, it's a little lagging. Let's get a video going. Looks like our fan has already
engaged cooling our system. Okay, so we got one video here. It looks pretty
good. Now this is seven 20 P playing. If I expand this, you'll be
able to tell that pretty well. But this kind of t the networking
notice it is taking a bit to expand it. Kind of testing the networking
video. As we can see here, G P U usage is at 98%.
C P U is pretty good. We had G P U is kind of like
stressing out a little bit. Check our temp 51 degrees we're
climbing and that's Celsius. Let me minimize this a bit. I want to see
what it does when I play a few videos. Now again, so far you're not going
to have a amazing desktop experience. I noticed that this is starting to stutter
a bit here as I'm just trying to open up another browser, but it's
starting to normalize. Okay, well that video is starting to stutter, but so far it's starting to kind of be
okay a little bit and checking in with our temps. Yeah. And usage
is climbing for sure. Check our command line temperature.
Let's take study of 51. So that active cooling's working,
let's open up a third video. We are really putting this G P U through
its paces and we're not even doing four K yet. We're just doing
seven 20 P. So yeah, my videos are starting to stutter a
little bit. Temperatures climbing. So lots of things happening.
I'm playing four YouTube videos, which I assume you probably
don't do most people anyway. And let's just see if I can do
other stuff while it's doing that. So like multitasking things. Now I can
definitely feel my mouse lagging. Yeah, it's laggy. C P U is almost maxed
out. GPU is having a hard time. If I were to open just another web
browser, it's usable. Using that word, using that word usefully. When is the Raspberry PI five coming out? So I can still do things while
playing four YouTube videos? That's impressive for the average person, for the kid learning coding or whatever
it is. This is pretty great performance. Now I want to try something different
here. I want to connect to my nest. The Nest that's actually right behind
me. Can you see him? There he is. And I want to see transfer speeds. I want to download a four K
file and see how it plays here. I want to play two four K files
right here on my four K monitors. Let's try it out. Let's stop
all my YouTube videos here. Now I do want to say this,
right now we're just having fun. I'm not doing a super
in-depth technical review. I just want to show you what it can do, what it kind of feels like to just use it, how you might use it with watching four
YouTube videos. Yeah, that makes sense. So now let's get connected to
my nas. Temperature has dipped, things are normalized now.
And I'll do that right after. I remember how to mount an S M B drive. Okay, I've mounted my share. Now let's connect an ethernet cable
because doing it on wifi wouldn't be fair. Okay, I have my share mounted. Now what I want to do is go download a
file real quick. Go my current projects. What do you say we do? The project
we're working on right now, raspberry PI five and actually video
editor blur out everything else. I don't want them to know what
we're working on. Alright, I'm going to open it with V L C media
player. Okay, this is a full four K file. It's kind of slow. It is playing. There's
not a lot of motion right there. Yeah, that's laggy. Whereas when I'm on a normal
computer, this does play pretty fine. Full four K going over the network,
kind of murdering it right now. Now what do you say? We transfer
that file. It's only five gigs. We'll open that V L C taking forever
to give me my context menu on this. There we go. Now this is playing on the
local operating system on the SD card. Ooh, that didn't look
good. Well, it's hurting. It's telling me it's played
2325 seconds worth of footage. I haven't seen anything. Okay. Ooh, so four K footage isn't
working great. Okay, so I'm watching my stuff in my
academy and it's actually pretty good. So doing stuff like this, normal desktop
stuff I think is going to be great. Unless I have another tab open and I'm
researching stuff. Okay, this keyboard, it lacks usability. I don't like it, but I'll say it's playing this
10 80 p video pretty good. Well, and I say that it stuttered a bit.
So here I'm using Libre office, a free version of Office for
Linux. And also anything else, I'm pretty sure this
keyboard's killing me. So right now I'm actually
running quite a number of things. I'm playing a video on my
academy. I'm installing VS code. I'm using a Libre office to take notes
and it's not doing too bad, okay? And it does lag from time
to time. It just lags. You're not going to be the most
productive person in the office. Now we're launching VS code. Like
overall, this is pretty usable. I'm happy with it. Now I
have a question for you. Do you think the Raspberry PI five
can run it pro tv? Let's try it out. So I'll launch my browser here on my
Raspberry PI five and navigate out to it pro TV by a c i learning my favorite
IT training provider and the sponsor of this video. Ooh, let's check
out practical pin testing. Now as you play at the Raspberry Pie, you'll find that you're
actually learning IT. Skills. Skills that you could build, grow,
and turn into an entire career. In fact, that's what I did when
I bought my first raspberry pie. It's why I bought it. I wanted
to learn Linux and I did, but it's on learning sites like IT pro
tv where I really honed my skills and fill them the gaps that I didn't really
learn by just tinkering with the pie. So going through courses
like the Linux plus, you'll learn a ton in a course like this
and you'll also get a certification and put it on your resume
to help you get a job. And then maybe one of your projects is
building a router out of your raspberry pie, which is really, really fun.
And you think to yourself, man, networking is kind of awesome. I
kind of want to do that all the time. You should. Well for that, they have networking certification
courses here on IT. Pro tv. They've got the Cisco C N A, the gold
standard in IT certifications, DevNet, associate security, or maybe
you're just getting started in it. You're trying to figure out what
you want to do with your life. That's where Compt might come in. Go for your compt IT fundamentals
or dive right into the compt A plus, which is what I got as my
first certification and it
helped me land a job in it. That's where I got my first start. So if you find yourself tinkering with
the raspberry pie and you're like, man, I wish I could do this stuff all the
time, you can't start learning it. Check out it pro tv. What I use
to learn, I got a link below. Use the code network check. You'll get 30% off forever and you could
do this kind of amazing stuff all the time. Anyways, back to talking
about the Raspberry PI five. The PI four versus the PI five. Who's
going to win? Let's do that right now. The first test we'll run is C P U. First,
we'll do single-threaded. Ready, set, go. Time for the PI five. Ready, set, go. I'm actually
really excited to see this one. PI four, 700 events per second. PI five 1000 events per second
so far, looking pretty good. Now let's go multithreading. We'll up our threads to
four pi four 28,000 pi five 41,000. I went ahead and ran geek
bench on these raspberry pies. PI four or PI five. I didn't know you
could run geek bench on raspberry pies. It's kind of amazing. Here's
the results also, little note, the geek bench ran significantly faster
on the PI five versus the PI four. It was done in no time. Now let's talk about the results
here on the Raspberry PI four. Here's the score. 2 58,
single core 6 95 multicore. A lot of things to look at and talk about. One thing I want to keep in
mind is machine learning. Let's check out multi-core performance
and check out the crypto score too, because the new Raspberry PI five has
a cryptographic engine or some kind of enhancements on the C P U. And
now for the PI five, look at that. 5 97 for the single core.
1530 for the multi-core. Kind of kill it in a good
way. Crypto score killed it. 5 78 versus 40 on the
raspberry. Five four, just every metric knocking out of the
park. And machine learning doubled. More than doubled. And multi-core is
crazier. I'll put the results below, but it it's kind of insane. What
was that Crypto score again? Crypto score 6 54, 1 58 on the PI four. Not even close machine learning. Again,
2 84 versus 180 9 on the PI four, PI five is killer. Now let's benchmark the browser and see
how the PI four compares to the PI five. And this is an important
one because a lot of people, when they're using an Raspberry Pi as
their desktop, mainly use the browser. That's the main thing. So let's
check it out. PI four, let's go. I'm using speedometer 2.0,
start the test. Lots of to-dos. That's honestly kind of stressed me out, but let's just drink some coffee
and go with it. Okay, PI four 19.2. Is that good? I'm not sure. Let's test
it on the PI five. Ready, set. Go. More stressful. I don't like this. 54.6. Are you kidding me? That's
pretty sick. G P U testing time. We're going to play the game called
Open Arena. PI four is up first. 1280 by seven 20. Let's see what
happens. F P s is not great. We're like under. Okay. It's killing.
It's dying. It's dying. Ah, ah, ah. Who's that? Okay, it's unplayable. If I
stay still, it's 15 famous per a second. I just want to kill someone. One person.
That person was me. Time for the PI. 5 12 80 by seven 20 P. Let's get started. This is so much better. Oh my gosh.
Look at the F P s. This is insane. The real test is if I can kill somebody. Now I know people mod this to get better
frame rates. This is just out of box. I haven't changed anything. I got
it. Okay. That's the real test. I got someone. Now let's dial it down just a bit more
to make it more fair On the PI four. I'll do six 40 by 180. This is so
tiny. How do I make this bigger? Let's see what F p s we get here.
I'm keeping all the same settings, not doing anything fancy at all. F P
SS is a lot better with nothing. Okay, so F P s is pretty good. Alright,
same story on the PI five. Let's drop it down to, what
was it, six 40 by four 80. Super tiny. Can barely see it. I
better get like 3000 F P ss on this. Yeah, it's ridiculous. We're
hitting a hundred F P s. Okay. We tested the pies and clearly the
PI five is just, it's ridiculous. It's the winner. It only took four years, but at least it came out in 2023 and
not in 2024. Right? Mr. Upton? Yes.
