It can't play Crysis but if you want to know if the new Raspberry Pi Zero has what it takes to power your latest projects then look no further than this article at Phoronix in which they benchmark the new low cost SoC.  The $5 Zero is powered by a 1GHz single-core ARM processor with 512MB of RAM and a Broadcom BCM2708, outputs include mini HDMI and USB OTG ports, and a 40-pin header which you are going to be populating if you want networking.  As you would expect the Zero does sit at the bottom of the benchmark tables, however at this price point you are shopping for "just good enough", not top of the pack performance.  Check it out here.

"For those curious about the performance of the $5 Raspberry Pi Zero, here are some benchmarks I've just finished up for this low-end, low-power ARM development board compared to other ARM, MIPS, and x86 hardware."
