07:39 <topi`> OK when are we going to see a Rock3 with the RK3399 on board? :)

07:39 <topi`> with 4 GB of ram, preferably :)

07:40 <topi`> and a decent usb3-based SATA bridge chip from JMicron

07:40 <hipboi> topi`, maybe 8G ram

07:40 <topi`> mmm, sounds fine!

07:40 <topi`> my Rock2 has only 2 GB, because the 4GB option was unavailable at the time I ordered it :(

07:41 <topi`> I wonder how expensive 8 GB really is since DDR3L chips must be more expensive than the usual bulk DDR3

07:43 <topi`> last year I read from Fudzilla that Intel believes chipmakers like Rockchip are going to turn to Intel cores, since designing ARM cores at the same time becomes too expensive - but at least the new RK chip releases prove otherwise

07:44 <topi`> and anyways ARM cores are popping up everywhere... Samsung, NVIDIA, others... Intel is just one single company

07:44 <topi`> I'd not place my bets on Intel's long term supremacy

08:13 <hipboi> topi`, there was a time, the rumour says rockchip and intel's cooperation not going well

08:13 <hipboi> then rockchip has to officially deny it

12:27 <topi`> as usual :)

12:27 <topi`> well, I guess it's more than just the usual cultural differences between USA and CHina
