    I am debating upgrading my Pi Box from a Pi 3 to a tinker...

    Is there any update regarding compatibility? Or any need for help regarding it?

    RPi B & RPi 3B OC (Now Raspberry pi 4b 8gb)
    Retropie (Latest Stable)
    PiBox with Wind Tunnel Cooling System

      I don't believe there have been any updates. From everything I've read, its gains are somewhat hampered by poor support, making it unreliable for constant use.

        I think the Odroid XU4 has better support for RetroPie and emulators - you might consider it if you're looking for a better SBC.

            Isn't the same often said of the Tinker Board?

              Can you expand on this or provide a specific link?
              I was considering the Odroid XU4 and any info would be great.
