Raspberry Pi 5 is up to three times faster, dual 4K displays, and packed with camera and USB upgrades. A real triple threat in mini-computing!

After much anticipation, the Raspberry Pi 5 has finally been launched! This mini-computing powerhouse is a game-changer, offering speed and versatility like never before. This latest iteration is a breakthrough in mini-computing, offering unprecedented speed and a host of new features. Prepare for a whole new level of computing excellence.

Raspberry Pi 5 is up to three times faster than its predecessor, making it perfect for smooth gaming, zippy browsing, and other powerful applications. And get this—it can run two 4K displays simultaneously. Oh, and did we mention it comes loaded with a host of other upgrades for cameras, displays, and USB? Because it absolutely does!

Features:

• 2.4GHz quad-core 64-bit Arm Cortex-A76 CPU 
• VideoCore VII GPU, supporting OpenGL ES 3.1, Vulkan 1.2
• Dual 4Kp60 HDMI® output (HDR + HEVC decoder)
• LPDDR4X-4267 SDRAM (4GB and 8GB options)
• Dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi® + Bluetooth 5.0 / BLE
• microSD card slot (high-speed SDR104 mode)
• PCIe 2.0 x1 interface for fast peripherals (requires adapter) 
• 4 × USB ports (2 x 3.0 @ 5Gbps & 2 x 2.0)
• Gigabit Ethernet (PoE+ requires separate PoE+ HAT)
• 2 × 4-lane MIPI camera/display ports 
• 5V/5A DC power via USB-C, with Power Delivery support
• Raspberry Pi standard 40-pin GPIO header
• Real-time clock (RTC), powered from external battery

Oh, and did we mention it has a power button? That's right, folks! For the first time ever, you can turn off your Raspberry Pi without having to dive under the desk and wrestle with your power strip. Welcome to the future, where convenience is literally at the push of a button!

Essential accessories:

Raspberry Pi 5 will work with a 5V 3A USB-C power supply, but to unlock best performance you'll want to grab an Official 27W USB-C PD Power Supply, especially if you're planning on powering power hungry peripherals like USB drives. You'll also need a micro SD card.

There's also some new cooling options to make sure your Pi 5 remains comfy whilst under load. The Paspberry Pi 5 Official Case comes with a built in fan and removable lid, or you could try the Raspberry Pi 5 Active Cooler- a combined heatsink/fan that bolts securely to your Pi and plugs into the handy onboard fan connector.

As is longstanding pirate tradition, we've also designed a brand new Pibow Case especially for Raspberry Pi 5 that keeps your Pi safe whilst allowing easy access to the GPIO, the power button and all the connectors. It's also compatible with the Active Cooler!
