I don't know how the N95 and N100 compare, but I picked up a Beelink mini PC with an N95, 16GB RAM and 500 GB NVME for $195 on a sale the other day.

The Pi 5 looks to be $112.

By the time I buy a PSU, SD card, case, RTC battery, etc, I'm definitely not saving money buying a Pi.

Disclaimer: Canadian dollars.

I picked up a Beelink because the Raspberry Pi 4 was unavailable. I use it as a Linux desktop (next to my M1 Air) and a Jellyfin media server. It has replaced the Raspberry Pi for some purposes, but the Pi still has a place when hacking on hardware due to the GPIO.
