Background Information

The Raspberry Pi 5 features a Broadcom BCM2712 2.4GHz quad-core 64-bit Arm Cortex-A76 CPU with cryptography extensions, 512KB per-core L2 caches, and a 2MB shared L3 cache. Its VideoCore VII GPU supports OpenGL ES 3.1 and Vulkan 1.2, offering an impressive graphical performance. Dual 4Kp60 HDMI display outputs with HDR support and a 4Kp60 HEVC decoder make it a versatile solution for multimedia applications.

Some notable revisions to the Raspberry Pi 5 include the new RP1 I/O controller, a PCI express port for an M.2 Drive, and a built in power button.
