ODROID Rolling Out New Intel-Powered Single Board Computer After Trying With Ryzen

[dungeon]

But even a passive heatsink like this one needs vents for convection...

Well, maybe this might really need because it is small

Does they require vent for this? Then Mini-ITX or max Nano-ITX sounds better then, it is better to have more space around for all passive anyway.

Yeah, but you need big chunk so half kilo of aluminium to cool down 35W and that is the problem There is none less TDP processors for AM4 than 35W.

All the Raven Ridge 2x00U chips have a configurable 12-25W TDP. The low end of that could be just about doable.

Yes, but U in AMD's nomenclature means - standard mobile chip, these are FP5 not AM4. AM4 only have lower power 35W, but not real low power.

AMD stopped opertaing in low power desktop space when they killed Cats But who knows they might do something again there in future.

The price should be around 130$-140$

yeah fine but where is the RGB ??

Was the embedded AMD chip going to be the same as on UDOO Bolt? https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...-the-next-leve

AMD Ryzen Embedded V1000 SoC $229 USD kickstarter price. Should be available early next year for non backers I guess, not sure what the price would be but I guess that makes it clear that it costs fair bit more than ODROID was comfortable with for a product and their usual audience?

yeah fine but where is the RGB ??

There is no PCIE or USB-C for R and G teams to be, so only B team is there

RGB is basic flag for these who believe in harassment free for everybody CoC, while this does not need declaration as Intel Inside

Actually I'm a bit put off by this. I'm always thinking of ODroid as an ARM centered company.

Interesting product pricing will be interesting.

Where did you get that from?

Nope. That's marketed as a PC, not a low power SBC.

We considered AMD Ryzen 5 2500U 3.5Ghz mobile processor. The performance was very impressive, but the price of the CPU was also very impressive.
Fortunately, Intel also announced the Gemini Lake processors. It was slower than Ryzen but much faster than Intel Apollo Lake, and the price was reasonable.
