Is a Raspberry 3B+ needed or can I get away with just the 3B?

[Nizztos]

Given that it is "impossible" to get a Raspberry (at least at a reasonable price) I'm wondering if I can get away with my existing Raspberry 3B at least to begin with until the 3B+ or 4 are back in stock? As far as I can tell the only relevant difference between the 3B and 3B+ is the clock speed. Or is there also something else that is needed?

Klipper’s recommended hardware lists RPi 2, RPi 3, or RPi 4 so you should be good to go with or without “+”.

RPi 3 will be fine. Or there are some cheap alternatives out there too.

Thanks!
Now that you posted this it is sort of obvious that I could have gotten the information there but I'm still to new to this to make the mental leaps needed to know where to look for information. Appreciate that you did the work for me.
