I think it will behave like the Raspberry Pi 4 with the 16GB... Luckily I still have one 16GB LPDDR4 chip lying around, so I guess you can expect to see me trying this soon :) It would be really great if it works out though.
@@MadEDoctor In some news that's at least 'interesting'... the CM5 that was spotted at a recent event has an extra resistor space below 8GB that is unlabeled. Some speculate it could be for a future 16 GB revision, which, if accurate, would need that updated firmware support!
@@JeffGeerling I had a look at the media coverage for the CM5 and here is what I think. If we say we are 100% sure there will be a 16GB version, it's either still a "secret" or they are behind schedule on the firmware side and we might not see a 16GB version on launch. But yeah, if we see a 16GB CM5 I will definitely be trying the upgrade on my RPi 5 with the new firmware.
@@MadEDoctor the CM5 is an embedded solution (probably not the correct word for it, i meant something along the lines that it has a smaller footprint than Pi5 cuz of no ports), and we have seen in the pi shortages that pi foundation prioritized the business owners for supplies (which is expected as their livelihood relies on pi delivered to them), so i expect some other bigger companies would want to maximize the specs they want from each CM5, so they would also be demanding a higher ram variant for the upcoming CM5, increasing the likelihood of 16GB CM5 being a thing
@@nondemify I think it’s there so you can identify what is the size of memory on the Pi even if you don’t know the FPGA codes of the different RAM chips.
No data sheet is available for the pcim pi5 and one will probably never be. But similar pcim junction temps max out at 125 ºC 65 shouldn't be a problem.
I mean, if you can run some server applications and home automation stuff along with it being a media center or running 3d printers and other projects with all of its gpio then it's less of a toy and more of a tool that some people don't know how to utilize 😂
@@theboz1419 That sounds like a cool project. Do you have a video of your project? Some people reading your comment will be interested. In your case, you do not require 24/7/365 industrial reliability. But if you think about it, your project is a 'toy tool'. LOL QUESTION: How do you keep your Pi from overheating next to that hot smoker?
@talk2azs I have been building the controllers for years, probably since 2010. Before the Pi we used an old Linksys router that was reprogrammed and added a SD card. It was known as the Linkmeter. A guy named Bryan Mayland designed it, and I was one of the first to build it. It was morphed into the Heatermeter when the Rpi became available. The design has not changed much over the years. I personally designed an Adapter board(Adapter board 6.3) to work with it. Anyways, it's a wifi controller with a K-thermocouple, and two meat probes. All the information is readily available online by searching for the Heatermeter. The smoker is controlled with a blower and a servo controlled damper. My personal Heatermeter I use a 35cfm blower to keep my very large Gravityfeed smoker within a degree of my setpoint. Its a fun project for a beginner to learn to solder and learn about the Rpi. I have made them for people all over the world, who rather not solder
@@louf7178 My best guess would be bad Power Supply for the Raspberry. As I think it directly powers the USB ports in the front. Maybe it has a lot of ripple or it’s too high voltage. It should ideally be 5-5.2V with max ripple 4.9-5.4V
@@MadEDoctor It's a Raspberry power supply - 3A. I might have to try a new one since I don't have a capable O-scope. The last wireless receiver failure seemed to take about a month. Thanks for your replies.
@@louf7178 Just get the Raspberry Pi 5 power supply. As it's 5.1V 5A it should handle the load much better (thus minimizing the voltage ripple), especially in your case with the HDD plugged in.
The main reason is that I prefer to use leaded solder and yeah nothing will ever happen to you if you touch lead every now and then. But when you work with it every day the story is a little different. The same goes with the flux and the isopropyl alcohol although they rarely get on your hands. Also, I really don't like leaving fingerprints on nice shiny metal surfaces as if not cleaned, they eventually oxidase and leave permanent marks. And there is the added peace of mind that even if I forget to wash my hands before leaving the workshop, I can eat without worrying that I accidentally contaminate my food. Lastly, these are nitrile and not latex, as I don't really like latex gloves.
Now I wonder... can you do 16 GB? (Those chips are much harder to come by in small quantities, I think.)

And I don't really think I will get any different result than this guy

Your work is truly impressive! Keep it up!
Finally the part I've been waiting for upgrading a ram damn been waiting for these years
Nice work 💯
Great work congratulations 🎉
Excellent more raspberry videos
Yeah a 16GB IC is 2x the cost of the PI
Buying memory ICs in AliExpress? You are a brave man 😁
Since it doesn't appear to matter - any thoughts on why they put the resistor ram selection jumper?
@@nondemify I think it’s there so you can identify what is the size of memory on the Pi even if you don’t know the FPGA codes of the different RAM chips.
wouldn't it be possible to find something like a 10-12, maybe 16-core ARM processor?
which would you try to insert? Raspberry Pi 5

Even though this video really is COOL, the Raspberry Pi line of computers are still toys! They are definitely fun, but they are still toys!
I 100% agree😅

Hey, I run my charcoal smoker with one, it's toy for some and a tool others.

Now upgrade it to 16GB 🗿
Challenge accepted!
But no guarantee that it will work though :D
Nvm, I just found this video... ruclips.net/video/xGJfPaf0OGM/видео.html
@@MadEDoctor
Oof that sucks, hoping pi foundation updates the firmware to support 16GB ram chips aswell
Go 16, 32 or 64, 128
RUclips needs BBcode.
Imagine swapping the 2gb ram from pi5 and upgrade it to 16gb ram 😁😁😁
It's probably not worth the money/time plus you might brick the pi
Is there a reason that an RPi would be burning up wireless controller receivers? My RPi has burned up two.

@MadEDoctor Hm... I'm measuring 5.1V at GPIO 2/4 and 6 with a multimeter. I'm also using an external USB HDD.
@@louf7178 What power supply do you use? And also you need a oscilloscope to see what's the voltage ripple :)

Everyone knows the rpi5 always neeed a small fan
why wear latex gloves ??
with such a single board computer you don't get your hands dirty !!
What is the reason ??

Always keep it clean as possible. Mistakes can be seen easier that way.
