Official Armbian Jammy Nightly 5.15 has no GPU acceleration
Images from RPardini do have GPU acceleration, but no sound
Manjaro KDE is nice. Works well, except video playback in browser. Max 720p.
++ Good cooling solution, doesn't overheat even at high overclocks
++ the Pi 400 is the first in the line of Raspberry Pi products to have an on/off power button
This is done by pressing Fn+F10. To restore power, you press the pair of buttons for two seconds
++ Default clock of 1.8Ghz vs 1.5Ghz on RPi4 performs 20% better. OC to 2Ghz 30% more performance than 1.5Ghz
-- Bad keyboard
-- Bad arrangement of the cursor keys
-- SD-card reader still rather slow with max 45MB/s. Better to use a sd->USB3 adapter for fast sd-cards
-- Still the undervoltage problem as with all other RPi devices when using a normal PSU. PSU's that deliver 5.3V perform best.
*** GPU overclock makes it perform worse
*** SD-card slot isn't very fast 45MB/s vs 90MB/s with the same card in sd->USB3 adapter
