I love no nonsense straight to the point videos like this. No corny jokes, all solid, helpful information. Thank you sir.

I love my Pi 4 for retro gaming. Batocera is my preferred installation, especially for SNES and Genesis/MegaDrive emulation.

I recently bought my first Pi4 8GB model from Amazon(just over a month ago) and I am loving it! Had a few mishaps along the way. But I am having a whole lot of fun. I am daily driving it and find it is easy and intuitive to use.

great video tutorial for setting up the device for beginners! thanks-a-billion. so easy to follow and the production quality is mostly great. well done and keep em coming 🙂

[SilverBenO]

Thank you for your video, it gave me the motivation to buy my first raspberry pi and start my first project.

[QuaesitorDei]

well thank you. every other video iv seen trying to explain how to get started has confused the hell out of me enough to not buy one. iv just paid for one on ebay. this video is so easily understood and i cant wait to get started. thanks again!!

[CAgrampa]

Thank you for making this video very informative for a very much newbie

[marishellcastillo]

Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!

[DebHoeck]

THANKS! Your video was perfect timing for me.

I know this video is a bit old but I have heard about pi due to being in amateur radio so I fired I’d jump. I’m waiting for the raspberry pi 4 series B with 8gb. Glad I found your video. I’m not very technical at all but I feel comfortable with the information here. Thanks!

🥳Just received my Ras. Pi4 today!
I opted for the 8GB RAM, 128GB Memory Version.
Absolutely Thrilled!
I have been reading and reviewing this for a few months.
Finally have one!
I watched the video first, now my next move is to get an ESD Setup for Installation.
Some that are familiar may think it is obvious, but NOOBS (newbs) may think it is okay to handle/install the PCB without ESD precautions.
What do you think?
And Thanks for the Review @LowDoughTech

I got a Pi 4 for Christmas, but have barely used it, so this is useful for me!

[frankgladden]

Great video! I've always wanted to get involved with raspberry but never took the leap. Thanks for posting this you've given me the inspiration to do so soon!

[pearltiresias]

Thanks for this 🎉just getting started on this, don't even have one yet. Thx

[s.guttmann]

Is the OS installation in this version easier? I'd seen other installations that look more complicated. Complete rookie here. Thanks for your guidance.

[TheRealSandleford]

this will not operate without an external graphic source? or it will but you cant see it? I know it makes little sense to ask when in front of the WWW but its a bit of chat I guess. Spose i wondered what this capture card was you refer. Now I looked it up. Came here after seeing one of these were on sale for 49.5 and was sold out!

[BezerkMaster]

I started it up and my refresh rate is really low. Do u know how to increase it to 60FPS?

The Raspberry Pi 8 and my opinion after 3 weeks working with it and crashing it so many time I have lost count. Why because there are so many opinions out there I wanted to use it full time first to see if it can indeed be used on a daily bases and second which distro really is best for stability, over heating, and finally over clocking. Storage Samsung T5 125g, quality on the Pi is important.
(1) The Pi can certainly be used as a daily driver of course without gaming included. My big test was I watch T, V, on my mini computer that I built so can you watch movies and television on this yes a little slow on booting the program in some cases but once up and running no problems.
(2) Over heating will occur if you are not using at least heat sinks in my case I opted for a cooler which works great. Bare bones heating hit as high as 70-80 Degrees way to high, Heat sinks much better 60-70 degrees, and a cooler 40-50 degrees all under stress.
(3) Distros I have tried them all the 2 best are Twister and Raspian both very stable and quick.
(4) Finally over clocking. My opinion do not over clock if you are not using a cooler, the heat and stress on the CPU is just not worth it because it will cause throttling, and you will get video tearing. I have tried all levels of over clocking and in my case from the max of Over_voltage=8, Arm_freq=2140, GPU-freq=700, I find the best setup is really gpu_mem=512, gpu_freq=600 and over_voltage=6, very stable, heat and tearing controlled.
Take my opinion for what it’s worth have fun with the Pi it’s great to work with.

I soooo love programming the crap out of my Rasp Pi 4. Python is what I use.
Great video.

Very nice, will be happy to receive projects
