For Raspberry Pi 5/500/CM5 models, we recommend the "Raspberry Pi 5" image below, which ships with a kernel optimized for these models and 16k page size.
The Raspberry Pi 2 comes in two versions, which is printed onto the PCB: v1.1 has an ARMv7 chip, hence needs to use the ARMv7 image ("Raspberry Pi 2 PCB v1.1"). v1.2 can use this ARMv8 image, which we then highly recommend!

These images are compatible with all Raspberry Pi models which have a BCM2712 SoC: Raspberry Pi 5, Raspberry Pi 500, and Compute Module 5

The Odroid C1 is esteemed to be the most powerful low-cost single board computer available, as well as being an extremely versatile device. Featuring a quad-core Amlogic processor, advanced Mali GPU, and Gigabit Ethernet, it can function as a home theater set-top box, a general purpose computer for web browsing, gaming and socializing, a compact tool for college or office work, a prototyping device for hardware tinkering, a controller for home automation, a workstation for software development, and much more.

In our eyes, the Odroid C2 is the best "all round" SBC on the market today. Exceptional CPU and LAN performance which is great for multiple uses. Couple the C2 with an eMMC module and you'll experience next-level SBC filesystem performance at up to 140 MiB/s transfer rates. The C2 is innovative SBC perfection, and, because of its excellent all round performance, we even have a few dedicated to daily DietPi testing.

The XU4 is a powerhouse performance monster SBC and features USB 3.0, which makes it great for a NAS system. However, the XU4 does suffer from excessive heat at full load, you can expect 3-5 seconds at full load, before thermal throttling kicks in @ 95 °C and reduces clocks. Aside from this, the XU4 is one of the most powerful SBC on the market today and features a much welcomed USB 3.0 support. It also looks great with Odroid-CloudShell and DietPi-CloudShell stats!

PINE A64 was the worlds first "kickstarted" SBC (AFAIK). Featuring a 64-bit CPU and up to 2 GiB RAM with Gbit Ethernet. The PINE A64 shows promise for future kickstarted SBCs, albeit, the PINE A64 board is somewhat cumbersome.

The Pinebook is a phenomenal Linux laptop with exceptional build quality that rivals £300+ laptops. The unit is fitted with an exceptionally bright 1080p IPS screen, eMMC and onboard WiFi.

When considering all this only costs $99, you'd be silly not to pick one up. Highly recommended for anyone who loves SBCs with an expected light workload use. An ARM laptop done right, and then some!

Small SBC with lots of features.

An upgrade to the original Nano NEO, now features H5 64-bit CPU and Gbit LAN. Quite possibly the smallest (and cutest) SBC on the market. Great for headless/IoT/NAS/server/HiFi projects and showing old friends how small computers have become.

A direct competitor to the RPi 3+. Features excellent and stable onboard WiFi, 64-bit CPU. A great all round board, utilizing the H5 ARM CPU. A good alternative to the RPi 3+, with increased performance at a similar price range.

A NEO2 upgrade with some additional features like eMMC and available with 1 GiB RAM

New build of the NanoPi M4 with DDR4 instead of DDR3 RAM.

The PINE H64 is available in two variants, Model A with larger PCB, PCIe slot and optional WiFi, and Model B with ROCK64-size PCB, without PCIe slot and fixed onboard WiFi.

The ROCK64's big brother is here! One of the fastest ARM SBC (RK3399) on the market today, with 2x1.8 GHz A72 cores and 4x1.4 GHz A53 cores. Onboard full size PCIe x4 with excellent throughput compliments a NAS/Server setup, and, endless opportunities. A great addition to your SBC lineup that provides next gen SBC performance. Bottom line: "it's a little chunky, but it ain't no monkey", we love it!

PINE64's next generation SBC based on the new Rockchip RK3566 SoC, which provides a lot of hardware features and connectors. Note that the RK3566 is aimed to be a successor for RK3288 and RK3328, not for the flagship RK3399. So expect the raw CPU performance to be in the range of the ROCK64. The SoC however provides a lot more hardware features, connectors and slots exposed on the SBC.

Little brother of the ROCK 4, headless but with voice detection engine, for IoT and voice applications.

Little brother of the NanoPC T4 with same SoC (RK3399) performance but a few less features, like no onboard eMMC chip (but socket) and no M.2 socket. However the form factor is RPi-like which might suite certain use-cases.

The smallest board of the M4/T4/NEO4 RK3399 family. One gets full RK3399 SoC power on a tiny form factor but pays this with only 1 GB RAM and the loss of the 3.5mm audio jack (HDMI audio only) compared to the M4.

A tiny headless SBC, comes in a cute white housing with fanless cooling. It has the ROCK64 SoC, so you know what you can expect, but it runs hot quickly inside there. Prepare to limit the maximum CPU frequency, apply a strict GPU governor or put the board into a new cool well ventilated home.

A headless dual-Ethernet SBC, useful as router setup or network bridge. It has the ROCK64 SoC, so you know what you can expect.

A successor or the NanoPi R2S, with newer faster SoC, doubled RAM size, USB 3.0 and optional onboard eMMC storage.

Odroid C2 successor with modern upgraded components.

Variant of the Odroid C4 with 2 SATA ports and SPI flash to potentially support booting from USB and SATA.

FriendlyELEC's RK3399 dual-Ethernet/router board. When using the optionally shipped metal case, the CPU temperature stays in moderate range without a fan, as long as you do not run long-term full-load processes. It is purely headless but has a serial/UART debug port, so if you use it for important services, we recommend to have a serial terminal or adapter cable available, to allow console access even in case of boot issues of failing network (no SSH).

FriendlyELEC's latest RK3568 dual-2.5 Gbit Ethernet router board. When using the optionally shipped metal case, the CPU temperature stays in moderate range without a fan, as long as you do not run long-term full-load processes. Other than previous NanoPi router boards, the R5S has a HDMI port as well.

The NanoPi R6S is FriendlyELEC's new flagship SBC, featuring the new Rockchip RK3588 SoC: A quad-core 4x Cortex-A76 @2.4 GHz + 4x Cortex A55 @1.8 GHz is making this the by far fastest SoC ever tested with DietPi.

Another variant of the FriendlyELEC NanoPi R6 series, with 2 Ethernet adapters and an M.2 M-key socket for NVMe SSDs.

So far the largest variant of the NanoPi 6 series, with up to 16 GiB RAM, 256 GiB onboard eMMC, 3 USB-A ports, an M.2 M-key socket for NVMe SSDs, as well as an M.2 E-key socket for WiFi/Bluetooth modules. Like the R6C it has 2 Ethernet adapters, but both with 2.5 Gbit/s

A new variant of the NanoPi 6 series. Compared to the NanoPi R6S/R6C and NanoPC T6, aside of the great onboard features, we observed a significantly lower idle power usage. As usual, the optional metal case keeps it at cool temperatures, and has an LCD display builtin, which can be enabled via device tree overlay in DietPi. A related dietpi-config toggle is added with next release.

The RK3399-based successor of the previous A64-based Pinebook.

The smallest dual-Ethernet SBC we currently support. This image should run on NanoPi R1S-H3 as well, which is pretty similar, just without eMMC and one USB port only.

Radxa Zero features a quad core 64-bit ARM processor, 32bit LPDDR4, up to 4K@60 HDMI, 802.11ac WiFi, Bluetooth 5.0, USB 3.0, 40-pin GPIO header. Radxa Zero supports USB 2.0 OTG and power via one USB C port.

A credit card sized SBC with older Allwinner H6 SoC. Since the similarly featured Orange Pi 3B is available with faster CPU, RAM and otherwise similar hardware features/aspects, is available for minimal surcharge, there is probably not really a reason to buy this anymore. But if you have one, we got you covered.
