The next generation Raspberry Pi is now available and has had a significant specs bump over its predecessor.

The Raspberry Pi 4 is priced from £34.99 ($35) and is capable of feeding two separate monitors with 4K30fps video. Alternatively, you can output 4K60fps to a single display.

That makes it the ideal starting point for a home-built media streamer or centre. Or an even more advanced retro games console as the one we built with a Pi 3.
