I do not think that word means what you think it does. I'm also flabbergasted in a world where a 64GB DDR4-2666 is $200 why anyone would say "16 GB is enough for anyone". Or, here's a fun thought: stop soldering RAM on the MB and let me upgrade on my own dime

I went to their YT channel, and it wasn't terribly helpful, but one of the recommended videos seems handy, including showing how small it really is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1wtxr3XJQQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1wtxr3XJQQ
- philliphaydon 4y agoI think when you compare to the Rpi 4 which has a max of 8gb. It’s alot more. For me I need to do a little bit of development targeting arm. Having 16gb instead of 8gb is a bonus.
- grozzle 4y ago$200 is generally much more than the total cost of these Rockchip boards. (This Khadas product is an usually expensive option.)
- mdaniel 4y agoYeah, I did bear that in mind, but I think there are two conversational directions going on here: "I want an SBC that can drive 8K video for $reasons" and "wow, a $400 arm64 desktop that just needs more RAM to be worth the hassle". I'm in the 2nd camp, and it wouldn't be a dealbreaker for the first camp unless using DIMM chips on an SBC is somehow cost prohibitive. I can believe it is, because hardware markets are weird, but if they could charge me $10 extra to use DIMM slots on that board, then they'd have my money because I could pack it full of RAM and not bother them about it
