Raspberry Pi 3 Model B - BCM2837

Raspberry Pi 3 Model B

(SD card with Operating System not included)

We are pleased to present the latest and greatest from Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi 3 delivers 6 times the processing capacity of previous models. This third generation Raspberry Pi has an upgraded Broadcom BCM2837 processor, a powerful 64-bit ARM Cortex-A53 based quad-core processor that runs at 1.2 GHz. All of these improvements lead to a 50-60% increase in performance in 32-bit mode when compared to the Pi 2 and nearly a 10-fold increase over the original Raspberry Pi. All of the connectors are in the same place as the Pi 2 and have the same functionality, and the board can still be run from a 5V micro-USB power adapter.
