Now, if you need GPIO, get a Pi.

And AFAIK, the case comes with heatsinks.
- I have several power supplies capable of running a Pi 5, it's USB-C.
- I have several MicroSD cards already (I pick one up for $5 every time I visit MicroCenter).
- I can 3D print myself a case, or just go without a case; they're not necessary.
- A Pi has community support and GPIO for projects that an N95 PC doesn't.
So, I don't need to buy a bunch of expensive accessories. I can buy this thing for the sticker price plus shipping (I'll probably get a $5 active cooler too) and be good to go. A halfway decent N95 PC costs more than twice as much.Sign up for a Slickdeals account to remove this ad.

A halfway decent N95 PC costs more than twice as much.The pi 5 doesn't use a standard USB-c power requirement, so there's a high chance your usb-c will not power it fully. It wants a 5v 5A supply. Hardly any supply can do this output other than the specific pi 5 supply. USB c power delivery for this wattage should be 9v 3A which is really common, but they decided aganist this for some reason. You can possibly use it on some smaller power supplies, but it will handicap the usb ports and overclocking ability. Pi 4 has always been picky on power supplies by throwing errors for most non pi supplies for too low voltage.
A micro sd card is not really comparable to an NVME ssd. They can become corrupted much quicker and are slower in general. I used my pi 4 on a 2.5" ssd and it was fine.
If you don't have a micro hdmi cable, that's another accessory you have to buy.
You will 100% want a heatsink for the cpu and possibly other board chips.
The community and gpio are very much the reasons to get a pi. I agree.
The mini pcs have none of these compatibility and additional accessory problems. it includes a case, heatsink, power supply, storage, Windows 11 OS, hdmi cables. You could open it and log into windows in less than 5 minutes. If you wanted to run plex, or jellyfin, retro games, or install some docker containers, you could do it all easily.
