Why doesn't anyone release something like an SBC with 4 mediatek Helio x10s or snapdragon 820s or some shit for low power consumption video editing?
Helio x10 should be cheap now and has 8 real cores and decent CPU performance and the whole board shouldn't be more than 20w peak with 4 of them. Or SD820 because it doesn't have any of that big.little rubbish.

Because the Xeon-D 1587 exists which despite using more power has like 10X the performance. That and it supports x86 software.
So you can either do video editing on an angry birds processor limited to 240p resolution on a SBC running debian mobile on a video editor that crashes at least 100 times a second OR you can do video editing on a super energy efficient x86 processor that can do 8K video editing on a desktop OS in an x86 video editor that just fucking works.

But how much would the xeon cost and what's included in that cost?
The mediatek board shouldn't cost more than ~150 dollars with 4 CPUs and 3GB ram per CPU(12GB)
It'll be like a mini cheap cluster.
The xeon will probably destroy it in performance, but that's not the only metric people look at when deciding what to buy.

Over $2,000 but if you're legitimately serious about low power consumption video editing ti would be a superb investment.

lmao

Yeah they also look at software support, especially x86 software support which your imaginary angry birds SBC lacks.

What's your beef with ARM?
>>56959685
What do you have against arm?
I can edit images and mp3 files just fine on my 3 year old Nexus 5.

Nothing just that what OP wants to use it for is fucking retarded. ARM is a cpu architecture for low power and low performance per watt processors designed to let you simple things on a phone. As soon as you start getting into useful things like video editing ARM shits itself with constant throttling on shitty software not even 1/100th as good as the desktop x86 counterpart.
>>56959985
>low power
Isn't that what op is after?
I'm pretty sure an sbc plugged into an AC outlet won't throttle. Does a raspberry pi throttle?
>>56959997
>Isn't that what op is after?
Yes but he thinks he will be able to edit 1080p video which would be extremely painful as the performance per watt is extremely horrible on ARM. Yeah ARM uses very little electricity but this comes at cost: raw computer performance.
>I'm pretty sure an sbc plugged into an AC outlet won't throttle.
>His imaginary SBC uses many ARM cores running above 2 GHz with no active cooling.
>Does a raspberry pi throttle?
OP isn't talking about the shit pi with worse performance than a $20 wallmart phone.

SD820 is big.little though. 2 high performance cores and 2 energy efficient ones.
>>56960030
No it isn't.
It's the same arch, just 2 fast 2 slow iirc, instead of big.little deciding which pair to put on all 4 can run together
>>56960077
>just 2 fast 2 slow
Literally big.little. Only the early big.little designs couldn't run all cores simultaneously.
>>56960131
I thought the point of big.little was that they weren't meant to run simultaneously?
This is new to me
>>56959555
But snapdragon 820 offers xbox 360 performance, are you daft?
Damn nugga you look fine
