What is included in the kit?

A Raspberry Pi 4 Model B board, an official 64GB A2-class microSD card preloaded with 64-bit Raspberry Pi OS, and the official black/grey case. A screen, keyboard, mouse and power supply are not included.

Which memory size should I choose?

1GB suits light scripts and headless projects, 2GB handles basic desktop use, and 4GB or 8GB are better for browsers, media centers and multitasking.

Do I need to install an operating system?

No. The included card comes preloaded with 64-bit Raspberry Pi OS, so the board boots once you connect power and a display.

What power supply does it need?

A USB-C supply rated 5V at 3A. Underpowered chargers can cause throttling or stability problems.

How does it compare with a bare Raspberry Pi 4?

The board is the same; the kit adds the official card and case, which saves time and avoids mismatched parts. A bare board is cheaper but needs those extras bought separately.

Can it run a desktop and a home server?

Yes. With 4GB or 8GB it runs the Raspberry Pi OS desktop, media servers and light containers; the 1GB model is better kept headless.
