Since the Raspberry Pi folks are still having production issues I'm entertaining ordering a competing product to tinker with. Has anyone done a shootout or at least compared the boards first hand. This will be used as a streamer and whatever I get will likely be overkill from a power standpoint, and that's fine. My pi4 is several years old and will one day be repurposed for something else, so I don't mind having more horsepower than I need for a given application. Things I'm curious about...
Does one company have an edge on board power management (less noise)?
Does one company have an edge on USB implementation?
Does one company have an edge by using a better clock or a better implementation?
Not necessarily looking to get into a discussion on why these things do or don't matter. The questions are what they are. Some of the manufacturers I'm looking at include:
Pine64
Odroid
Khadas
If you have any specific experience with something you liked, I'd love to hear about it. My current plan is probably DietPi or LibreElec. Also open to personal experiences there. The end goal is to install Roon bridge. Thanks in advance.
