Banana Pi BPI-M7 - A thin Rockchip RK3588 SBC with dual 2.5GbE, M.2 NVMe storage, HDM 2.1, and more - CNX Software

Banana Pi is working on the upcoming Banana Pi BPI-M7 SBC powered by Rockchip RK3588 SoC whose low profile design reminds me of boards from Khadas such as

The Banana Pi BPI-M7 single board computer is equipped with up to 32GB RAM and 128GB eMMC flash, and features an M.2 2280 socket for one NVMe SSD, three display interfaces (HDMI, USB-C, MIPI DSI), two camera connectors, dual 2.5GbE, WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2, a few USB ports, and a 40-pin GPIO header for expansion.

    Lmao did you just compare the highest possible power consumption on a Pi with the lowest possible consumption on a desktop PC?

      Lmao, do your research before commenting stuff like that.

      TDP 35 W Thermal Design Power (TDP) represents the average power, in watts, the processor dissipates when operating at Base Frequency with all cores active under an Intel-defined, high-complexity workload. Refer to Datasheet for thermal solution requirements.

      Here’s how things look on the HP model above:

        Model name:            Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8500T CPU @ 2.10GHz
    BIOS Model name:     Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8500T CPU @ 2.10GHz To Be Filled By O.E.M. CPU @ 2.0GHz
    BIOS CPU family:     205
    CPU family:          6
    Model:               158
    Thread(s) per core:  1
    Core(s) per socket:  6
    Socket(s):           1
    Stepping:            10
    CPU(s) scaling MHz:  23%
    CPU max MHz:         3500.0000
    CPU min MHz:         800.0000

      Obviously that thing wont be running at base frequency while idling. Here is one if units right now:

      analyzing CPU 0:
  driver: intel_pstate
  CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0
  CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0
  maximum transition latency: 4294.55 ms.
  hardware limits: 800 MHz - 3.50 GHz
  available cpufreq governors: performance, powersave
  current policy: frequency should be within 800 MHz and 3.50 GHz.
                  The governor "powersave" may decide which speed to use
                  within this range.
  current CPU frequency is 800 MHz.

      See, it scales down to 800Mhz with a watt meter I remember it translated to idling at around 10-11W.

      I never said it was better than a Pi, I just said the difference is not worth it and you’re still ignoring the fact that i5-8500T will be able to do a LOT more work than the RPi5 could do while keeping the CPU bellow or at 2.1 GHz - not surpassing the 35 W TDP.
