Raspberry Pi's new Compute Module 3 has serious competition coming its way from the maker of the Pine64 board computer.
The new SOPINE A64 64-bit computing module is a smaller version of the popular US$15 Pine64 computer.
It was announced the same week as the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3, which is a smaller version of the popular namesake board, was released.
At $29, the SOPINE A64 roughly matches the price of the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3, which ranges from $25 to $30. The new SOPINE will ship in February, according to the website.
The SOPINE A64 can't operate as a standalone computer like the Pine64. It needs to be plugged in as a memory slot inside a computer.
