looks like it would make a decent router board if the cpu is strong enough to handle a bunch of connections

Damn, that looks like one powerful little board.
Stick it to the back of a monitor and it would be a perfect shitposting machine.
Tyler Wright
Definitely interesting. Dual ethernet and an actual cpu. Might make a good router and a miniserver.
Bentley Collins
Wow it supports AES-NI
So it'd be legit for a router with VPN services.

Considering that my pfSense box at work is running a Core2Quad Q9300, and only using 4% of its 4GB RAM, the base model should be way more than enough.
Only thing I worry about are the gigabit LAN ports... are they full bandwidth?
Shoot I might have to get in on this.

>doesn't ship to your country
Looks like I'll have to wait for the official release and hope it won't cost over $300

I hear AMD's latest housefire cards are pretty good

sorry I don't like backdoors :^)

These Apollo Lake based CPUs come with HD Graphics 500 and 505
ASRock and Kodi Devs say it supports HEVC Main 10 4k@60fps decoding and VP9 decoding

but Anand said it doesn't support HEVC main 10

I think Anand got it wrong there, it doesn't support HEVC Main10 and VP9 encoding unlike kaby lake but it can decode them. It would be good if we get confirmation though, if there is HEVC Main10 support it would be a very good for cheap HTPC
Ethan Moore
Nigger there is a FPGA on this thing. You can get a cheaper device with the same performance as this for your routerneeds. Get the fuck out of here.
Ryder Williams
What do you suggest? Do you know his requirements?

Apollo Lake does support HEVC Main10 hardware decoding

Neat I missed those post, Anand is confirmed wrong

Too expensive for what you get. I'd look into some other complete passively cooled solution with case and everything that fit a pcie card with a few more gbit ports.

>there is a FPGA on this thing
The board looks interesting to play around with but honestly I have no idea what I would do with the FPGA. Sure I could refresh my some 15 year old VHDL knowledge but I don't know what I practically could achieve with it.

Was interested in it as a router board. But i only take Intel.

>kickstarter
This will never actually ship. They will fail to deliver and will ship a shittier/more expensive version 6 months after the promised date just so they don't get sued.
Nicholas Price
>60 Eurobucks & 140 Eurobucks for the cheapest ones
Ha, nope.
Jacob Reyes
Like all kickstarters that don't just do the kickstarter to get funds to run a production batch for a complete and QC:ed product they will be late to deliver. I'd say the probability is quite high that they will deliver something late with unfinished software.
The concept seems nice. Looks like they are aiming for fusing rpi3 and arduino for the hobby project but it's too expensive to shit on rpi3 and/or arduino

Intel desperately trying to capture the maker niche
