REDESIGNED LAYOUT: While the form factor is still the same, the layout has changed so Raspberry Pi 4 Model B will need a new case. The processor is built on newer 28nm technology but the cores use more power on startup (1A) while peak power (1.5A) is slightly lower than before.
IMPORTANT CHANGES: Instead of MicroUSB, Raspberry Pi 4 Model B uses USB Type C for power. You can use a MicroUSB to USB Type C adapter if you have a high quality true 2.5A power supply. The HDMI ports are the MicroHDMI variant and not the MiniHDMI variant found on the Raspberry Pi Zero.
ANODIZED HEATSINKS FOR LONG LASTING PERFORMANCE: With our exclusive heatsink set in non-enclosed passive cooling condition, the Pi 4 can operate at maximum performance for five time longer than without heatsinks or about twice as long as lower profile competitive heatsinks.
ASSEMBLY WARNING: Only the main SoC and PCI-E USB bridge disipate enough heat to warrant a heatsink. The LPDDR4 RAM, Ethernet PHY, and WiFi/BT module should not have heatsinks! Putting heatsinks on them poses short-circuit risk and decreases wireless signal quality. Do not use metal cases if you plan to use WiFi or Bluetooth!
