https://tube.devwithzachary.com/videos/watch/bb96772a-2b45-4529-9244-e712877e2f4d Welcome back to the third installment of the Ultimate Pi series. Today we are pushing the Raspberry Pi 5 16GB to its absolute limits. We are housing it inside the massive Pironman 5 Pro Max case and pairing it with a Hailo 8L NPU. The goal is simple: build the ultimate compact, local AI system. We go through the full unboxing and assembly of this incredibly premium case. However, the real test comes when we try to run local LLMs. While Ollama installs smoothly, we hit a massive roadblock: it does not support the Hailo 8L NPU for acceleration. We are stuck relying on slow CPU processing for our AI tasks. Watch the full build, see the hardware benchmarks, and find out if the Pironman 5 Pro Max is still worth it despite the software limitations.
