Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@drfish5393 says : But how can i install Intel Management Engine on this?😕>> <<@oblivicmonarch6669 says : Do LLM models work well on such systems? I hope Risc V gets more adaptability when it comes to AI..>> <<@KuruGDI says : It would be interesting to test the PCIe port with a graphics card. An x16 card wont fit into an x8 slot, but maybe there is some type of dongle? As Linux includes drivers for AMD cards I could imagine that it runs much better than you would may expect on such a system. The bottleneck would of course be the CPU, but that's not really the point here for me.>> <<@KuruGDI says : 21:25 IMHO it's not _just_ that it is new, but also that it is an open source hardware design with the potential of improving very fast and being customised to the needs of single applications. As you said in the video: It's incredible how fast the development of RISC-V comes along (but to be fair I can't remember whether x86 or ARM CPUs improved that much in such a small timespan).>> <<@thanatosor says : SATA3 = 279MB/s NVME = 489MB/s Well, can't expect more...>> <<@andreasrumpf9012 says : RISC-V: Terrible instruction set made bearable by pushing billions of dollars into it.>> <<@이건개발-p8n says : 크당>> <<@dejanlekic5513 says : Could you please add links to the other components you used for this build (enclosure, heatsink, power supply, battery, etc)?>> <<@DiegoTorres-mx1wc says : Good video>> <<@DAVIDGREGORYKERR says : If only there was a build of UNIX System V that would run on the RISC V chip.>> <<@jonathanstein6056 says : Chris, I would be psyched if you picked up a powerful FPGA and designed your own “dream” RISC-V processor from scratch! If you reduced it to an ASIC and sold it, I would 100% pick one up!!! Verilog and VHDL are quite easy to pick up. Well, food for through. Keep up the great work!>> <<@S0m3D00d says : Something old is new again. Great to see the development of risc v>> <<@jeanlouisfaure2003 says : Could you or somebody among the listeners propose a different box slightly higher that could accept the PCI cards? Thank you so much.>> <<@Randy-nb6fw says : I would love to see a distro that runs entirely from ram on a SBC like this. They usually have plenty of ram compared to the lower power CPU. This might help the responsiveness alot.>> <<@bonbonpony says : 05:28 I wish there were PCs with BIOS/Firmware stored on a µSD card instead of a soldered-in Flash EEPROM. Imagine that: updating your firmware would then be as easy as swapping an SD card.>> <<@ThePopolong says : For Krita, itwas already usable on 1 core Sipeed based on Allwinner D1 without GPU, but you just need to disable GPU acceleration, as this board probably doesn't have OpenGL (default Krita rendering, so it switch to soft mesa GL rendering) but only GLES and vulkan acceleration?>> <<@umardev500 says : Much faster my intel core i5 gen 4 LOL>> <<@Samunico says : Is the CPU soldered to the motherboard? And the chipset too? It's not a good idea to have it soldered because I can't change to a new CPU in the future. All Risc-V PCs should be modular, easy to change CPUs: Make use of the motherboard and be more ecological.>> <<@siener says : I used to be a RISC-V skeptic, but now I'm pretty excited about it's future. The progress in the past few years has been amazing. I think it will make even more inroads into the embedded market and the data center, but eventually I think we'll see more and better consumer devices.>> <<@NickFellows says : Seemed to load gimp very quickly - was this the first run ?>> <<@PankajDoharey says : I just fail to see how RISC is superior to ARM, Open ISA doesnt do anything for me when RISC perpetual licences are so cheap. And even the core design performance of ARM Machines is tested and much superior to RISC they even come with GPU cores, which you can replace with your own design shall the need be.>> <<@brianwalker859 says : Please someone tell me where I can get that Bianbu wallpaper? I mean I want the whole set, whatever they have, gorgeous>> <<@Dave102693 says : I want run a system like this and use gpu dependent creative software as a good performance without needing a dgpu right away,>> <<@spudhead169 says : I'd rather it had no RAM and you supply your own like a regular motherboard. Then it makes it less of a headache to upgrade.>> <<@MS-bc4dy says : You could have unscrewed the back bracket from those cards to physically get them in the slot. There's no significant weight from the heatsink/nvme to worry about and it doesn't look like there are ports on the bracket you need access to.>> <<@shamshadansari1765 says : Hope to see RISC-V as the main stream system of Personal Computers>> <<@little2wang665 says : i see mr.bean.>> <<@HKey_Root says : I was waiting for guidance on how we should pronounce 'Milk'. 😉 #Mate #Gnome>> <<@TzzSmk says : it's a very weird niche platform to be honest, but any competition on the market is welcome, performance barely on par with 15 years old Windows XP and connectivity barely on par with 15 years old PC....>> <<@lukemira5567 says : i reserved "oasis". but, not ...>> <<@kobial8406 says : "Verrrry Soon" - that cracked me up.>> <<@Kyanzes says : 9:25 there should be fairly simple clamps be available either with the sinks or perhaps separately, should not cost more than a buck. The two holes are already there. Mostly south bridges are held down this way on x86-64 boards.>> <<@cryptearth says : ah dang - missed opportunity to plug in a dGPU and test if it works and how well it performs maybe we can get a follow up video on that topic?>> <<@simplybloxxed says : Great video as always, I recently got a milkv jupiter for RISC V development and I'm already a fan of it. By the way, the jupiter is compatible with both radxa's rockpi eMMC chips, and the fan cooler for the rockpi 5B. So if you're looking for proper cooling and/or eMMC storage, I highly reccomend those. BTW, if you'd also like to try a GPU, I've heard that RX5__ gen cards have been tested on the board.>> <<@myleft9397 says : Look at that tiny heat sink & no fan! Compare them to a i9 14xxx or Ryzen 9 79xx! When do you think they'll make a RISC V processor that really pushes the limits of heat/power, and will it be comparable or better that Intel & AMD's?>> <<@wiktorpp says : Hey, has anyone tried the muse pi v10? (The one with the Spacemit M1)>> <<@ChinchillaBONK says : What are the use cases for these alternative PCs?>> <<@thebaldchick2857 says : My computer architecture course at university is based entirely on risc V architecture>> <<@asiano3385 says : 3:50 I would like to see these eMMC sockets in smartphones too. It would make custom OS flashing easier. They don't take that much space.>> <<@asiano3385 says : I don't know why but I really like the SoCs with metal heat spreaders. They look kind of cool (And I guess they really are). Like a miniature version of desktop CPUs.>> <<@scottfranco1962 says : So if I understand correctly, they garroted the internal M.2 drive by giving it a two lane PCI, whereas the PCIE card mounted drive got double the performance due to four lanes of PCIe.>> <<@scottfranco1962 says : They make right angle pcie risers. I found one on amazon for $9.>> <<@schtive81 says : It is really impressive to see just, just based on the future prospects of RISC-V in general. Yeah, the productivity software like Krita and Kdenlive doesn't look very useful at this point. But the fact that the software even runs at all is interesting in itself. It is good to see another CPU architecture available as well. I don't see RISC-V being competitive to anything in the desktop space from AMD or intel. The R&D just isn't there yet to compete with the billions of dollars put into Ryzen and the iCPU line. RISC-V is looking like an alternative to ARM CPU's. Which is a very good position to be in. But then again, Nvidia, intel and AMD all have teams dedicated to Risc-V derivative CPU's.>> <<@timballam3675 says : Have mine on my desk waiting for the case and a POE module.>> <<@pseudonymity0000 says : You can secure large heat sinks like that with pushpin holes on the motherboard with zip ties. If you get a zip tie where the square end can't fit through the hole, But the rest of the zip tie can, You just simply Put the zip tie up through the hole, loop around one of the fins and go back down through the hole and zip it tight.>> <<@GregoryLoscombe says : Sorry maybe I missed in the video, but would be great if we could get power (watts) usage idle and under load. (and probably for the Rock 5 ITX too) Other thing that might be nice going forward is video encoding / decoding in hardware. Thanks for the videos.>> <<@jonrasmussen3113 says : Hi. Just started subscribing. Love the videos. You describe and explain things very clearly. I use Cubase on my PC but I need to upgrade soon. I’m currently undecided about moving over to Mac or staying with PC. I’m worried about the issues with the Intel CPU’s (overheating etc). Could you do a build video of a current PC intel (or AMD) system that is likely to work. My current system is a dual Xeon, Windows 10 with 128gig of Ram. I’d love to be able to build my own. Cheers. Jon.>> <<@shamrock1961 says : Meh.>> <<@stub1116 says : I enjoyed the video. Unless RISC5 becomes more than a comparable substitute to present computing methodology, I feel that it will always be underfunded and miss-aligned, sorry !>> <<@ThylineTheGay says : 14:45 just BTW, "gimp" is a slur against disabled people, the GNUimp people know this (and knew it when initially choosing the name) but refuse to change the name, even though the name is harming their software it's really unfortunate how there are people like this, making open source look like it's made up of insensitive and stubborn jerks>>
