x86 SBC

Shameless bump. I feel like I'm crying to the ocean and nobody hear a word.

It's not that, it's just that /g/ is basically consumerist spergs circlejerking to hardware benchmarks and chinese shit nowdays.
You'd be better off asking /diy/, to be honest. Good luck.

>Have any of you an experience vith VIA processors? Want to share?

never buy via, they don't offer any support

arm's they way, arm's love

>>59127251
VIA is the Cyrix of the 21st century

I've been thinking of getting an old laptop off craigslist and using that when I need x86.
A step up from that is probably the intel NUC, but that's a bit expensive for one of these boards...

Via make interesting CPUs. They achieve (realtivly) high performance on incredibly low clocked CPUs like 1 GHz to 2 GHz. It makes me wonder how competitive with Intel and AMD they'd be if they weren't restricted by their small budget and consumer base.

What's the point when you can get a latest gen atom (goldmont) quadcore for less?

I can't find reliable sources for their performance. I want something more productive than RPi3 for IoT controller. Intel embedded Atoms go as finished products, not SBC, so I really interested in VIA.

It's kinda large and no GPIO.

What about the Intel Edison, Currie, D2000 Board?

>>59132024
Well, D2000 is a microcontroller.
About Edisson I've heard a lot of negative feedback, especially that it can't run any general-purpose GNU/Linux distro because of locked bootloader. Their own distro lacks packages and poorly maintained.
Correct me, if I'm wrong.

What's the point if we have Atom/Celeron?Pentium SBCs that can play 4k video with gpio pins, 2 Gbit ethernet and 8GB memory + 64GB eMMC installed for the same price?

That's interesting, thx anon

>>59131128
Nah, Cyrix chips could actually be competitive for some tasks in their heyday. These are more like the Geode or MediaGX of the 21st century.
