Mister FPGA

I was really sold on it being UK based and the work they put into the parts and tolerances, but then I priced it up and it was a lot more than my Mister Pi and struggled to justify it.

Had it come with a nice case I might have bitten but in the YT previews it looked very cheap. I get that from a distance (and stuck in a TV unit) it would probably have been alright and the ports etc. are more important.

My Mister Pi has been fine, but the build quality isn't great which was a disappointment, I spoke to RR and they didn't seem bothered in the least.

I'll be skipping the SuperStation, not bothered about the optional CD drive and given I have Mister I can't see much reason to get one.

The Mister Pi is incredible value.

It is pretty much the same price as the QMTech, that needs a barrel DC power supply as opposed to USBC.

Having had both I'd say the QM is better built, it had a weird case made of PCB and a janky fan though.

But with my Mister Pi being warped I'm looking at spending £20+ on a new acrylic case.

Would have been cheaper for me to keep the QM and just replace the fan. But given it's the industrial version of the chip it can be run without a fan and just a heatsink with no issues anyway.
