I've seen RPi5 is only quad-core while OPi5 is octa-core. RPi5 has better connectivity with Wifi and Bluetooth. Are there any other details I've missed?

Does the orange pi 5 also require active cooling? That’s one of my bigger hangouts about the RPi5.
Fwiw the Pi5 is like the Pi4 in that it doesn’t actually need active cooling, but youll enjoy better sustained performance if you stick a heatsink on it.
If it was required out of the box, Raspberry Pi wouldn’t be selling it separately
I dont think so, there is a tiny fan on my case but I dont think it does very much in addition to the heatsink. I could probably run it without the fan just fine.
