Octoprint if you can get an Rpi Stock is improving and it's a great addon It's also nice to be able to send prints right from the slicer

The best upgrade I made. No more moving SD cards back and forth. Adding a camera and octo everywhere takes it to another level too. I also bought a little USB light from ikea and plugged it into the raspberry pi, very useful when printing in a dark room.
