I would like to know how much will a router board for EOMA68 cpu card cost. Can anyone approximate the cost?

ircusertest: at a guess in 1k volumes it would be somewhere around... $15 for materials. that's a rough guess, and it's materials, not supply cost, ok?
<lkcl>
sale price would be appx double that.
<ircusertest>
thank you. sounds good for a router such powerful

hello
<hramrach>
anyone considered Marvell 88F6281/2 or other of those Marvell chips?
<hramrach>
it seems that QNAP nas and other random stuff including some plug computers is based on that. They have a $250 devboard which is out of stock ..
<hramrach>
awesome feature for parallel computation freaks is that you are supposedly able to connect the SoC with their SATA ports for 6Gbit communication link
<hramrach>
other than that you have PCIe, *real* SATA interfaces with PMP support and sane actual communication speed with disk, dual Gbit Ethernet
<hramrach>
.. and no graphics acceleration which should not be that much of a concern with PCIe
<hramrach>
but no board other than the devboard comes close to taking full advantage of the SoC features and $250 is not much competitive with Chinese SoC based boards. Plus it CPU IP is ARM5??

dual pcie ether on a marvell SoC

isn't that kind of what the mirabox is?

yes, it has dual PCIe one of which is taken by the USB controller and dual Gbit but no SATA
<hramrach>
and I prefer my drives connected to SATA over USB, even if it's USB3 and on a box that probably can't use even the USB3 bandwidth
<hramrach>
SATA provides SMART diagnostics for one and is way less CPU time demanding compared to SATA
<hramrach>
at least the EHCI one used to
<Night-Shade>
most of the decent usb -> sata convertors do smart now
