it is just 1.2 Ghz, Raspberry class
SMP-support would be needed |

Sure not a Power8 device or i7 killer, but probably with a better price/performance ratio than X5000, let alone X1000. Probably T104x based which has the e5500 core. Lacks Altivec unfortunately. All in all (as long a no SMP is used) probaly on par with a fast G4. With the G4 faster on vectorized computations and the T104x faster on throughput based things. But a bog step from the Sam460 level and hence a good thing.
edit: Just read about using a P102x which is e500 based. e500V2 to be precise - which is this fpu incompatible thingie. Ouch!! Last edited by Zylesea on 10-Oct-2015 at 11:18 PM. Last edited by Zylesea on 10-Oct-2015 at 11:13 PM.

Yeah, got it about the P1022 - disappointing! _________________ My programs: via.bckrs.de MorphOS user since V0.4 (2001) |

Ok, nice but what will it bring that Sam460 has not ? Last edited by K-L on 11-Oct-2015 at 12:15 AM.

Maybe is for this:
http://swatkats.info/entries/tabor-2/
A character from a animation serie of the 90's that was cancelled Is a minor character Is a warrior Is very loyal to their queen they are cats
Sounds very "Amigaish" to me (But it could be just me. is it?)

ok then
Problem is that in real world was a island reported once and than never was found again:

And with the bad track record of Amiga curses...put a name like this to a motherboard could give bad luck
ok, ok!! it's late and I need sleep Last edited by Fransexy on 11-Oct-2015 at 12:44 AM.

If it's P1022 based, it will bring software incompatibility - code will need to be recompiled because of the FPU difference. I hope it's e5500 based, otherwise I don't see a point, frankly..._________________

I don't think any code will become unusable. The kernel will simply trap to a different set of functions for that FPU (as it used to do with the 68060).

So compared to a Pegasos2 it is: - 10 years later - 2x the price
And will only be on par in performance when neither Altivec nor the FPU are used or if Altivec is still not used and code compiled specially for it's FPU is provided.
I do like the form factor, but with these numbers I just don't see the point. _________________ - We don't need good ideas, we haven't run out on bad ones yet - blame Canada |
