Frequently asked questions
What do people actually build with these boards?
The classics are retro game consoles, media centres, network-wide ad blockers and smart home controllers, and that's before the genuinely creative projects. Starter kit reviews are full of first-project inspiration.
Should a beginner buy a bare board or a starter kit?
A kit. The extras a bare board needs, a proper power supply, case, cooling and storage, cost nearly the kit price bought separately, and underpowered chargers cause most beginner frustration.
Do accessories fit every board version?
No, cases and some add-ons are version-specific. Check the listing names your exact board model; reviewers are quick to warn when a case or fan doesn't fit a newer revision.
