Title: Raspberry Pi2 Bencharked Against other Sub 2w Boards
Post by: totallymaxed on March 26, 2015, 01:21:42 pm
David Hunt Benchmarks the Rpi2 against; Rpi1 B+, Beaglebone Black, Intel Edison, Imagination MIPS Creator C120; http://www.davidhunt.ie/raspberry-pi-2-benchmarked/ (http://www.davidhunt.ie/raspberry-pi-2-benchmarked/)

Interestingly the Intel Atom based Edison is not that far ahead of the Rpi2 in performance terms on any of the benchmarks but is at least 3x more expensive because of the requirement to add a Baseboard to the main Edison board, and of course it has no community/eco system at all.

Raspberry Pi Foundation have announced that they had shipped around 4.5million Rpi's just prior to announcing the Raspberry Pi2 in late Jan and have since announced that they are manufacturing (& selling) 20,000 Rpi2's a day currently which means that by April they will certainly have shipped over 6 million Rpi's.

All the best

Another set of benchmarks here for comparison and one set against the Beaglebone Black again too;

More benchmark goodness for your pleasure;

The BeagleBone Black is interesting but it just doesn't have enough RAM and neither does the XM either. In any case the XM is over 4x the cost of a Rpi2. Watch this space is the phrase that comes to mind!

All the best
