If I stripped my old laptop down to a single PCB, it certainly wouldn't boot, it would be missing RAM, and storage. My PCs would have no RAM, no CPU, no storage, potentially no GPU, and most of the servers would be the same. The IPMI&#

Hmm, I'm not sure if I'm missing something but that 1st comment is what I'm doing. I have 3 different sized Deepseek R1 models (1.5, 8, 16) and they run on each board that can handle them and then the data is reported. For th

The balancing of wanting to draw attention to sbc.compare and allow the post to stand on its own feet has failed it seems :D No worries, the feedback is good and I'll see if I get time to go back and add a summary for this, otherwise,

Yup, seconded! Libre Computer do a great job on this front

Thanks! See my reply below to the other user on this, I think the links to sbc.compare in the article have a lot of the data that you're looking for. I didn't really want to duplicate all of the data I have on the other site, I wa

For that I'd really point you towards the links in the article, as that was really what it was supposed to do :D As I mentioned to another person in the comments, this was literally supposed to be a recap of the boards I tested, with l

What kind of summary are you realistically looking for/expecting in an article like this? (Genuine question, no sass!)

by sthlmb 6mo ago
Hey! Author of the post someone linked here. Fair comment, though this wasn't really meant to be a review, or "go buy this!" type of post, it was more to highlight what I tested from the boards released in 2025 and share the

Under the Test Environment collapsible I have the OS version and kernels tested at least, but I could definitely look at adding something extra to help make things more obvious on that front

About 65 boards in I realised there was a slight error with how the idle power consumption was being recorded, so I had to scrap all of that data :( The last 15 or so do have this, but I made the decision to backfill that data as and when I

Realistically, I don't think any of the tests I have would run on something like that, I'd need to look at different types of tests, and then they wouldn't really be comparable with the rest. Though, I don't think most p

I'm discussing some other bits with Banana Pi so maybe I can ask about that, I'd need to look into the device to see how viable it is, let's see! I can definitely add the "How did you get this board" disclaimer ther

It's a little bigger than what I imagine you're looking for, but the Radxa 5 ITX (not the ITX+) has 4 SATA ports, PoE+ (via a separate module), 2x2.5GbE, and the RK3588 SoC - I've been testing OpenMediaVault on it for the las

No no, it's OK, I think I was a bit frazzled last night so I was likely a bit short heh, sorry!

If you could share a little more on what you actually mean, that would help a ton. I’m not a developer, I put this together as I went, learning along the way. It’s not perfect, and I’m aware of some issues, but if you’d be so kind to expand

Hmm, the search by SoC should work already, but there have been a few regressions with the search functionality that I need to fix it seems. Notes on the other bits too, it’ll take a couple of weeks I imagine but we’ll get there!

Good point! Added to my to-do list :)

Raspberry Pi products can be found in a lot of industrial/professional setups, especially things like their compute module range(s) that can be dropped into off-the-shelf, or custom carrier boards. Others can be a bit more hit and miss

I hear you! Like I mention to others in the thread, this functionality is already there, I just need to finish populating all of the data. To get over a mental block I had to decide whether I'd continue trying to add each feature befor

I do have a ko-fi available in the footer of the website, and if someone wants their donation to go towards a specific piece of hardware then I'll most certainly do what I can to honour that, or return it if I can't. On the sample

And until you decide to execute on that plan, I'll enjoy this little bit of attention :D Thanks again for the support!

I do accept them from vendors directly (and it has no bearing on how I run the tests) but I've not taken any from individuals before. I'm not quite sure how I'd do that logistically, but if there's something interesting

I have full specification capability hiding in the background and once I've filled out all of the data, you'll be able to do just this!

I've noticed a couple of issues with the search and filtering this evening, I'll have to look at it tomorrow. In the meantime, https://sbc.compare/arm (there's also /risc-v and /x86) may help a litt

I guess I'll reply here and cover both of the comments :D There are currently 80 SBCs in the database, and they're all boards that I've obtained over the last few years. It's a side project/hobby and buying many mor

Hey! So I was quite surprised to see my site posted on here so soon after hitting the "go live" button, and thanks for your comment. I wrote a blog post about why I made the site at https://bret.dk/introducing-sbc-

It's missing the connector and power components on the PCB so you may be able to solder them all on yourself if you have the parts but it's going to be a pain in the ass :D
