Khadas Mind Review

[@NicoDsSBCs]

!!! With the help from Khadas team I now am able to get the max frequencies. Needed to set governor to performance !!!

I glad to see mister NicoDi, good rewiev

[@NotRealNamesAgain]

Cool video Nico. The small form factor is appealing but after buying two docks/etc, I feel like the money might be better spent on a Minisforum mini pc that *can* go full turbo, even better if it has Oculink for their $100 GPU dock!

[@NicoDsSBCs]

It is not for everyone. But I know people who don't "mind" paying a bit more for something like this. I could not afford it for sure. Got to send it back to Armbian now.

Good little PC... but honestly? A orange pi in zero form factor with a similar performance compared to the orange pi 5 and with the power draw capped at 5W would be really, really sweet.

[@NicoDsSBCs]

There are enough boards like that. Radxa zero and zero2. You can always underclock a board to only consume a certain amount. I used to clock the rk3399 to 1Ghz all cores and it conumes a lot less while still very usable. For the PineBookPro that's useful to save battery. Greetings.

@@NicoDsSBCs That is good to know... and thanks for the tip, I'll (definitely) keep it in mind. With the upcoming new RK3688 chips around the corner, that'll make things (even more) interesting than they already are.

I will never more buy Khadas Stuff... the bullshit what they made with the Khadas 2 Edge and i can not use it without m2 support oder with the cheap SD-Card support U1 ... absolute Bullshit for that i paid to much money. But one good thing, you are a very good KZbinr and i don't understand why you have not more subscirbers???

[@NicoDsSBCs]

Hi. I do like my Khadas Edge2 Pro for my video editing while traveling. It's compact and works well on any power bank. But I do understand what you mean. It is missing some things to make it a good all-round sbc. For desktop use I wouldn't be happy with it. I do use the Rock5B for that and that's got everything I need for that task. Thanks, you can't force people to watch :)

You need to setup the performance mode to get a higher frequency.

[@NicoDsSBCs]

Added it as first comment and pinned. Will see if I can make a video when I find the time. Can't remake the video since already online.

Sorry out of topic..been using your armbian gaming script in git to compile box86 into my mxq rk 3228 box. The problem is can we compile box86 Wich I read is just about 12 mbyte without have to upgrade everything to already running armbian 32 bit? It took a lot of time and storage space to upgrade..thanks for your script

If advertised clocks are not reachable and the manufacturer, who's very advertising will be designed to sell such a product, admits it then it is not just a pity but fraudulent behaviour that means the company cannot be trusted.

[@NicoDsSBCs]

With performance governor it now is able to reach those clocks on single core tasks. Nick from Khadas mentioned it after I made the video.
