minus-squareManzas@lemdro.idlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoThat is due to power reasons ,but they could have just underclocked it by default.
minus-squareAdanisi@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoI don’t buy it. USBC can deliver quite a lot of power
minus-squareDacoTaco@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoI agree. Pi5 apparently uses 5v@5A max, which is outside the usbc-pd specs. Not sure why they didnt go for usbc-9v in and use onboard components to convert the power to something lower for cpu ( which i assume it already does from 5v )
minus-squarebane_killgrind@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoMaybe those packages are bulky or something.
minus-squareDacoTaco@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoWhat is the power reason if i may ask?
minus-squareManzas@lemdro.idlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoI dunno maybe cpu? Really it is actually stupid why didn’t they just make it optional.
