« on: April 16, 2024, 11:22:51 AM »
Is it possible to use a Pi 5 instead of a Pi 3 with Pi Storm32 Lite?

Simple answer “no”. Unless there is a Mark 2 of the PiStorm. The Pi5 has a slightly different arrangement where the CPU sits, so will not fit the current PiStorm.

Pi4 / CM4 are insanely fast, do you need more, lol.
2.5GHz's is enough for me, plus the 1.7GB's of Fast RAM just sweetens it, :).

It's more than physical layout. The official FAQ on Discord (posted by PiStorm creator Claude Schwartz himself) states "It will need major changes to PiStorm/PiStorm32-lite on hardware, gateware and software. As soon as Pi5 boards are available we will investigate." (28 September '23)

Basically what I stated in my post in regards to layout and needing to be a mark 2 PiStorm. 😉
