Seriously, economies of scale count. If all you want is a low-cost home NAS, NewEgg can fix you up for $150 complete: 2-core Kabylake CPU, MB, memory, PS, case. Disks extra.

This is possible very soon. What kind of ARM system would you want? We can probably make it.

I actually think the board is a good value it just isn't what I'm looking for. I'de rather see some of that high speed networking replaced with On chip video support. However the board has a lot of other nice goodies so I'm certain it will be successful.

For a top notch system, I would de-emphasize soldered-down functionality: To those big and little cores, just add a SO-DIMM ram slot, M.2 storage and enough USB3 ports—that will let people put as much money into storage, RAM and peripherals as they like, which is also a lesser commitment when those parts are reusable.
Since I'm personally interested in a laptop replacement; bonus points for selling (1) a compatible laptop grade screen with the right kind of flat cable that plugs right into the board, and (2) a 6S LiPo battery module.Last edited by andreano; 26 February 2017, 07:08 PM.

The Kirin 960 will have great support but it's not there yet. Qualcomm is and probably always will be off the proprietary land. Mediatek is MIA as well. Hopefully they improve on this front and have more foresight.
