Never heard of this company before. Been waiting on a dually board for ARM. Hoping AMD does this soon on there new 64 bit ARM processores.
These 48 core chips might be interesting for 3d rendering if they are cheap enough, gigabyte seem to be a partner and said they will have server + mini itx boards.
Correct ! Say ... cheese !Originally Posted by lizardmech

Here is a video of the ThundeX boards by Armdevices.net

Sorry, just lightly browsing so don't know if I skipped over it. Is there a price tag for these yet? And if so, anyone experience in crunching/folding with ARM chips? Wondering if something like this would be worth it in the future.
Awesome find! Many thanks

AFAIK, no price announced yet. No idea about folding on ARM, sorry.
I think I've seen a PCI3 slot in the video, I'm not sure, but that MicroATX board will be very interesting if it supports a GPU, yep.

Why a gpu?
I just want the dual one with no gpu to crunch
Here is another board, directly by ARM Holdings. It is not really a end-user product, it's really a reference devboard aimed to "make other motherboards" or to test software compatibility... but it's interesting:
The ARM Juno Devboard: 1x A57(dual core), 1x A53(quad core), GPU MALI T624(quad core,OpenGL|ES3), 8Gb DDR3, PCI-Express, SATA, USB, LAN, Audio:

No idea about its price.

It's just a 4-8 core a57 with PCI, USB motherboard, cmon , Daamit ! It should cost 200$ max.

The cost is probably more for support through AMD and for the software.
