The new Rpi 5

Hardware

Are there any advantages in changing my Rpi 4 to a Rpi 5 when its out next month?

I dont see it my self, but it would be great to have a reason :wink:

I would say no.
If you need more resources than your RPi4 can deliver, then a NUC will be a better choice.
RPi5 will be more appealing when the NUC is not an option anymore.

By the time you have bought one, a cooler, a PSU and a case you are up for £105. Far better off buying a cheap mini pc or second hand thin client or NUC. Or if you already have a pi4 just leave as it is.
