Raspberry Pi 4 Model B launched in SA

A new version of the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B with 8GB of RAM is now available in South Africa.

Terrible headline. The 8gb version launched not a new model.

Well done @Bradley Prior! I was wondering how MyBB got this news before me, but it's only just dropped. Impressed.

Awesome! More RAM was the thing I wanted most from a Raspberry Pi.

Eager to get full 64 bit Raspbian Linux on RPI4.
According to benchmarks - quite a big performance bump going 64 bit

Why you should run a 64 bit OS on your Raspberry Pi4

no matter the use case

Ubuntu is too bloated for my use case.
I have 64 bit kernel, but user land is still 32bit.



EDIT;
I see there is a 64bit beta

Thanks!
Started testing it.
It's a desktop edition, my use case is the "Lite" edition.
I'll do the performance tests and see.
