Raspberry Pis are cheaper again
See my comparison video last year, when the Mini PC was cheaper: • When did Raspberry Pis get so expensive?
And Happy New Year! Hope the rest of 2026 has more happy news, lol.
Prices were taken from Micro Center (as I could go to the store today and buy the hardware at that price immediately), or from Amazon product listings that are able to ship in 2 days or less.
If you want to support the channel, Amazon will give me 2.5% back on your purchase of the GMKTec mini PC (note: GMKtec offered me a 10% commission, but I don't participate in any manufacturer's commission-based marketing!): https://amzn.to/4bhsi4e
But I'd recommend buying some used hardware or using what you have already for now ;)
