I'm getting the impressions you're projecting your desktop Linux usage onto a SBC Pi.

The point is: Every time you open a new Chromium tab, at least 1 additional process is created. By the time you get a half dozen tabs open, you've pegged your 4Gb system at 100% memory utilization,...

My desktop machines use a lot of power and make a lot of noise. In the end, all that power usage turns into heat, which then necessitates running the A/C (I live in hot Arizona), which uses even more...

If youre going to use this for Retropie, old school game emulation, you dont need the 8gb ram variant. The 2gb version is good for emulation.

Lately I've been using the Sakaki 64-bit Gentoo Image on my Raspberry Pi 4/4GB. It's notably snappier than 32-bit Raspbian was, and I really like the Xfce desktop environment much better than that...

I hate a whooping 8GB of RAM. The RAM keeps screaming 'Whoop!' all night and keeps me up. I prefer that one with a whopping 8GB.

Curious if you think 8gb is warranted for a Pi running as a NAS and PiHole.
I was planning to get the 4gb but $20 isn’t a huge diff.

More RAM the better for your NAS, but the Pi Hole runs fine on my 2gb version. I've read people putting Pi Hole on the Zero, so it must not require too much resources

You may not be the only one, but I don't think many people actually use more than 4GB of RAM on an RPi4 running Raspbian. You're the rare exception, not the rule.

As someone who uses Linux heavily every day, I can say 4GB of RAM is not enough for my basic needs. If your needs are more basic, great. Maybe you can get by with 4GB. But there's no way I'm the only...

I do wonder what the point is, though. Seems to me that the RPi4 is a suitable desktop replacement if you aren't married to Windows and...

I’m guessing these will sell out in a few days. What are practical uses for 8gb other than multiple tab browsing and video streaming?

If you’re using this as a desktop replacement then 8GB makes sense but most people use a Pi for much more limited tasks where the extra memory doesn’t really help.
Hopefully for those who do want...

Likewise, and best to avoid the Sakaka. Buncha crap IMO.
