You probably want a computer designed around performance instead of &quot;community&quot;.  Check out the Odroid C2.  It&#x27;s got a 64 bit quad core CPU (just* like the Pine and RPi3) but clocked at 2GHz. And has real gigabit. And has twice as much ram. And can drive a 4k screen comfortably.  Sadly no USB3.  You can get that, but in boards that cost $70.<p>The C2 goes on sale in like one or two days for $40.  (edit: You can buy in now on HK&#x27;s website.)  Kind of a childish move for the RPi Foundation to be making so much noise about their new board right now, actually.  (edit: Okay, benbenben makes a fair and accurate point.  Several boards, including the first, have been released at the end of February.)<p>* Not entirely just like. It&#x27;s an Amlogic chip instead of Broadcom or Allwinner. Amlogic is one of the few without blatant GPL abuse.
