Desay M6 vs ROE Visual CB5 MkII

6.25 mm against 5.77 mm · specifications from both manufacturers' datasheets

Side-by-side specifications, then the same wall built from each tile, so the comparison is in panels, kilograms, circuits and data runs rather than in marketing copy.

Whole cabinets rarely hit an identical size, so each wall is the closest build to a real video format (16:9 or 16:10) near 8 m wide for that tile: 8.00 × 4.50 m and 7.80 × 4.80 m respectively.

What the numbers say

ROE Visual CB5 MkII resolves finer: 30,044 pixels per square metre against 25,600 for Desay M6, 17% more. On a 8 m wide wall that is 1,352 px across versus 1,280 px.
ROE Visual CB5 MkII is the lighter rig: 17 kg/m² against 24 kg/m². Across this wall that is 311 kg of difference, 674 kg versus 985 kg, which moves point loads and can change the hoist call.
ROE Visual CB5 MkII draws more: 667 W/m² against 550 W/m² at full white. For this wall that is 19.8 kW versus 25 kW, and 10 versus 12 circuits at a 16 A/230 V supply with an 80% derate.
Data is lighter on Desay M6: 2 runs against 3, at 28 and 24 panels per port respectively (60 Hz, 8-bit, ports loaded to 80%). Fewer runs means fewer home runs to pull and fewer processor ports to find.
Different cabinet formats: 800 × 900 mm against 600 × 1200 mm, so 50 tiles versus 52 for the same wall. Fewer, larger cabinets build faster; smaller ones give finer control over wall dimensions and are easier to handle alone.
Estimated truck space: 2.9 m for Desay M6 against 3.1 m for the other, including spares, cases and cabling.
