Fuck amd64, I want to run Linux on a desktop arm64 already
ARM64 on desktop
Samuel Bennett
Tyler Rivera
so, do it?
Angel Davis
Unless I am doing something wrong, there are no ARM64 consumer cpus, none show up on pcpartpicker at least.
That's what I meant, I want to be able to build my own machine from parts and use an arm64 cpu.
Parker Nguyen
The LeMaker Cello would be up your alley, if they ever release it.
Nicholas Thomas
It is still too soon. Don't worry, ARM will win on the longrun.
Adrian Robinson
i'm sure 2017 will be the year of the linux desktop too =)
Austin Robinson

You have to go back.
Benjamin Harris
>power consumption per instruction is actually worse than x86 when scaled
Have fun with that

Why would any manufacturer want to release a SoC that isn't soldered to the mobo?
Buy rpi3, you'll waste less money to realize that these things are useless.
Christian King
>worrying about scaling on a desktop
wut
why
thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis
Josiah Wood
Who cares? When they do come out they're going to use a ton of proprietary blobs that you can't boot without like current higher end ARM SBCs.
Easton Peterson
>scaling from mobile to desktop
The cavium does less while consuming more power than a comparable x86. Same for the amd a1100.
Julian Johnson
/bread
Julian Reyes
Just don't be a faggot and buy a compute stick then, at least it has less shitty linux driver suport than most ARM stuff out there.
Luke Cruz
For reference the a1270 has a 32w tdp and barely beats the atom c2750. The xeon d series crushes both.
Nolan Russell
Why ARM? Go POWER, MIPS, SPARC, etc.
Ethan Green
b-b-b-but muh x86 PC gaymes!!!
Michael Hughes
Tegra X1 has a TDP of 15W and it rapes atoms.
Caleb Lopez
Fuck ARM and fuck OP.
Charles Thompson
I wish Oracle wasn't a bunch of jews and would push SPARC back into the desktop again, Blade 2500s and Ultra 45s aren't getting any younger.
Joseph Fisher
Go to 96boards and order one faggot
I asked for a reference A72 board from ARM (Juno) but they didn't wanna give me, they only sell in bulk to companies l0l
Christopher Young

Nolan Edwards
SoftIron will guarantee your board will work in 24/7 operations like an actual server.
Lenovator's is a prototyping board (no guarantees whatsoever other than it boots and you can do stuff on it sometimes).
Jordan Young
>guarantee your board will work
>AMD
Hudson Bennett
???
ARM CPU don't have to be in SoCs.
Grayson Green
>POWER, MIPS, SPARC, etc.
HAHAHAHA
Those are all dead on the desktop. MIPS hasn't been done since early 2000s SGI, SPARC since about the same time, and POWER has that vaporware thing, the TALOS.
Ryan Gutierrez
those all have new processors and boards but they're either too expensive or abysmal performance (creator CI20 kit for example) I guess it's really ARM vs x86 now
Aiden Gomez
Does it have an HDMI port or a PCIe slot?
Jayden Williams
Ci20's a pretty great board
Nicholas Reyes
>HDMI
No
>PCIe slot
You have to pay more.
You can put a GPU on it though.
Josiah Martinez

Landon Kelly
Please show me, I'd love to be wrong.
Isaiah Jackson
What's with people using this ARM meme on a desktop?
Do you enjoy eating shit from your own 2 hands?
Are you so poor that you can't afford a ~$100 AM1 desktop build?
Brody Sullivan
What's with people using this x86 meme on the desktop?
Landon Sanders

I might get the LeMaker Cello once there is an affordable case. The only case right now is 3D printed:
github.com
I got quotes from a few 3D printing services and it's about $100-$150...
Sebastian Nguyen
Against mobile class atoms, sure. The c2750 is server class. It's comparable to a cheap i3.
Lincoln Hill
Oracle just released a new 32-core SPARC chip a few months ago
Brayden Carter
The atom c2750 runs at 12w less than the highest model for comparable performance.
Jacob Thomas
>arm vs x86
Only in the low end market.
Arm manufacturers keep pushing for arm servers but it'll never happen. Arm consistently performs worse at the same power consumption.
Landon Hughes
I don't know, maybe because it lets you use premium x86 software that does more than launch angry birds in a 2D vydia? Just a guess though.
Brandon Hall
sparc is a whole load of shit these days
Julian Ramirez
>Arm consistently performs worse at the same power consumption.
That's an understatement.
pic related: has the multi-core performance of a stock i7-5960X and a TDP of just 65W.
Elijah Hughes
Enjoy mandatory $10,000/yr Oracle hardware support contract on top of $20,000 you paid upfront for hardware.
Xavier Ramirez
Ok great. Where can I buy it and what motherboard supports it?
Logan Turner
Nice pentz AKA quints
