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.
