The Raspberry Pi 3’s 1.2GHz quad-core CPU only just has enough power to run XBMC, and it doesn’t even support 4K output like the Nvidia Shield. Whether it’s building a CCTV camera, creating a dedicated Minecraft machine or making a phone, the Rasberry Pi can do it – but it also makes a mean Kodi streamer. It has a slightly slower processor but twice as much RAM.
The old 4K Fire TV box is also worth looking at if you spot one on eBay.

While the entry-level Fire TV Stick is nowhere near as powerul as other Android TV boxes with just 1GB of RAM, the new 4K version offers 8GB of storage and support for 4K video through YouTube, Netflix and Amazon Prime. But Amazon’s interface incorporates Google’s operating system and you’ll find Kodi and a bunch of other TV-friendly apps in the Amazon app store. Technically it’s a stick rather than a box and it doesn’t look like a typical Android device either. But the best bit? The Shield can also act as a gaming box, so you’ll be able to zip through Kodi menus – and play premium Android games too. Your movies will look great on the Nvidia Shield and because it’s also compatible with Dolby 7.1 surround sound, they’ll sound good too. Capable of Ultra HD streaming, it also offers the ability to stream Kodi in 4K. The Nvidia Shield is easily one of the most powerful Kodi boxes you can buy and for less than £200 it gives you 16GB of storage, a controller and more importantly, massive performance.
