Right it’s those legal issues that I’m trying to understand, the article says he used off-the-shelf parts which usually means encumbrances. I initially thought this was like risc-v where he’d done ALL the work, which seemed insane, the amount of work it appears he did is also crazy for a single person to do. I was just curious on how much was his own.
- wildzzz 3y agoHe mentioned something about his job possibly being a hindrance to releasing everything as open source. This guy has been in the video game industry for a long time so there's a chance he does similar graphics work as a day job and there could be crossover technical details that his employer might take offense to. The hardware itself is just a Zynq Ultrascale+ module attached to a custom board, probably using reference designs from the various component manufacturers so I doubt there's an issue releasing that. Those Zynq modules are not cheap so this is still definitely a toy and not anything useful for everyday computing. You could buy a RTX 4060 Ti for probably less than the price of the entire FuryGPU hardware stack.
