Welcome to WeeWX, but also to note, that there are many previous posting 
regarding this issue (which should check prior to new post).

Always debate regarding cost x performance, but the following is my take:

1) RPi as hosting hardware
Version 3 or 4 performs well, but for minor price diff, 4 is latest and 
Python 3

2) WeatherFlow
For price x performance, I'm sided to WeatherFlow, which not just ping at 
2.5secs timeframe, but also has NO moving parts, ambient light, UV index, 
solar radiation. Sonic anemometer!

The previous model (which I have) has 2 sensor units. Which it's good, as 
you can place the 2nd unit in shade for better temp measurement.

On Amazon, for $299.95 (which is 5cents under budget!) :P

To note, there is a newer model - Tempest $329. - not in Amazon yet and 
back-ordered, but directly from WeatherFlow website:
https://shop.weatherflow.com/collections/frontpage/products/tempest

I don't know the comparison about the 2 in detail, but the new unit is 
"all-in-one", while the older model it's split in two.

Funny as things goes.... previously, WeatherFlow was "proud" to market the 
2 separate units as better measurement (as one could go to shade, instead 
of direct sun radiation), while now they market the single unit as a great 
feat (to cut costs for sure...).

Regardless, either one are great and can go no wrong.
