ARM is good though. Low power consumption. I'm glad somebody made it more mainstream. I have a 2010 Arm Board NAS that streams video (1080), and music DLNA, hosts SMB shares, with web gui all on 256MB of RAM.

Yo that’s crazy! I was surprised to find out the Pi 4 I picked up a few years ago can’t even stream 1080p video and it has 4gb ram and a 1.8 ghz cpu

That's weird. I have a dual core 1.3ghz atom with 1800mb of ram that can stream 1080. Are you transcoding too?

Dunno, was just trying to watch YouTube on Chromium. I tried to install Firefox to see if that helped but it did not.

I looked it up on the pi forums and from what I could tell it’s just not capable of 1080p60.

Ah, I misunderstood. I thought you meant streaming a 1080p video to play on another device, not view one on the Pi.
