PiRO Qube
The Mini Monster.
Overclockable BCM2711 ARM v8 processor, up to 2GHz
RISC OS 5.29 and 2GB of software as standard, with optional software worth more than £600
2GB of fast LPDDR4- 3200 memory
64GB uSD card or 32GB eMMC as standard
Small. Fast. Mighty
At only 60mm x 60mm x 43mm,, the PiRO Qube’s size blies its power - this is a mighty machine condensed into a super small package. It even has a range of expansion options including USB and the standard 40pin GPIO ports, plus a uSD slot to the side and a simple power button on top. You can even power it from a single USB port on another computer!
Processing
Small. And upgradeable.
PiRO Qubef eatures high-performance DDR4 memory, which, combined with the state of the art ARM CPU, all adds up to faster processing. With 2GB of very fast RAM, PiRO Qube is capable of more than you can possibly imagine in RISC OS.
Storage
Standard SD or fast eMMC
Being based on the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4, it’s no surprise that PiRO Qube comes with a choice of either a quick micro SD card or an enhanced 32Gb eMMC, the PiRO Qube can load all of your necessary apps and files in super quick time. For users with access to disc-intensive applications, like modern web browsers, the eMMC can be partitioned to operate as traditional filecore storage, with a Super Turbo Drive which loads them even faster than native SATA drives on some of the slower CPU RISC OS machines. And expanding your storage is easy - simply add a USB drive for increased capacity. The PiRO Qube even has a built in NVMe slot, that is great for loading EDOS Linux as fast as possible - we’ll even install it to a suitable drive for free!
Temperature Control
Active Cooling.
The PiRO Qube comes complete with passive cooling heatsink attached to all of the components that produce the most heat. When utilised with CPU throttling when idle, the system remains cool in use. But just in case, there’s a software controlled PWM-fan built into the heatsink, for when things really start hotting up.
Productivity
Power to the desktop.
Utilising the flexibility and speed of RISC OS, combined with the processing power and robust storage, the PiRo Qube helps you become a more efficient RISC OS user. Not to mention 4k resolutions for extreme productivity.
