    is 4gb enough ?

    • Depends what you are doing. I am looking at using it for home automation and in that case 2GB is enough.

        Depends on size of your home…

      That's like asking if size 10 shoes are bigger enough without telling us how big your foot is.

      • What about running K8s services in lab env? Just planning to explore containers :) PS - I'm new to Pi and Containers LOL

        • Once again depends on your container size.
          FYI check what architectures your containers support - i briefly had a pi with docker, but i got rid of it after running into 'this container doesnt support arm processors' too many times.

          • @nothommus: Thanks !! Pretty small tbh, I won’t host any workload though.. just to play around with setup and commands

    • is 4gb enough ?

      yep.

  • How’s overall experience with heat sink and other peripherals? Good quality or should one opt to buy them separately

    • according to comments, fan is very loud

      • I have this kit, and yes the fan is loud, but not that bad, but it cool the CPU 10C more than the low noise fan.

    • I got this about 6 months ago to run a pihole setup
      The case is good, but the fan can be a little loud if you have it near you.
      Ive currently got it running in passive mode (fan unplugged) and it run ~55C to 60C on a hot day.

      Its a good value kit as it has everything you need.

      • I gather the fan is designed for 5v, and I’ve read that you can run it off the 3.3v pin, which reduces noise significantly.

      • I got this about 6 months ago to run a pihole setup

        The Pi 4 is such an overkill for just pihole. Hope you're running more on that thing.

        • yeah, I have pi hole running on a Zero W

        • I got it to dabble in Pi stuff. Pihole is just its current use. Eventually it will be used with Home Assistant
          I had the fan in the low power mode, and its still pretty loud

      • So, its okay to unplug the fan? I'm new to this, so not sure if it would impact the performance.

        • only need fan/heatsinks if your running it near the limit and need max performance

  • +1

    I just had a look at the Labists website - you can buy it off them direct for about $A130 delivered.

    So the usual Amazon price is not that great and this is only a small discount - but I am not sure of the delivery time.

  • I’ve been keen to get a HomeBridge/HOOBS setup going at home to pull together my HomeKit and non-HomeKit devices. And maybe run Pi Hole as well (if possible).

    Would a Pi 4 be overkill?

    We don’t have an non-HomeKit cameras at the moment, and when we get cameras, they’ll likely be HoneKit compatible.

    While I know the fan is supposed to be loud on this kit, I’d pick up a passive cooling case for it.

    Or should I just get a Pi Zero or Pi 3 for cheaper?

    • +1

      stick to the pi 4 for anything HA/HomeBridge related
