  • Dave demos and benchmarks the new LattePanda Sigma single-board computer, which features 12 cores, 16 threads, 16GB RAM, 500GB Storage, dual 2.5Gn NICs, dual 10Gb USB, dual 40Gb Thunderbolt, and much more! For my book on ASD: amzn.to/42ykB2i
    And it can run Doom!
    Tools Used:
    USB Power Meter: amzn.to/3pgO964
    Wera Screwdriver Set: amzn.to/416QnSM
    LattePanda Sigma: www.dfrobot.com/product-2671....
    Note that the WD drive is in a PCIe-4.0x4 slot whereas the Samsung is in a PCIe-3.0x4 slot, so the perf numbers reflect the M.2 slot performance and should not be used to compare the drives.
    Errata: At one point I say the CPU has 8 perf cores and 4 economy cores - I said it backwards. It's 4 perf cores (hyperthreaded) plus 8 economy cores.

    Update: I've had a report of a Sigma failing after being powered by USB-C, and the email from Latte Pande advises "only power with the power supply supplied LattePanda." It worked fine for me, but it appears their USB-C implementation must have a fault if they are advising against its use.

    It's crazy how powerful singleboard and micro form factors are getting. Its a really exciting time for processing power.

    • @rikschaaf
      @rikschaaf Год назад +7

      Agreed. They could be a good replacement for using a laptop in flexible work spaces. All you need is a screen or two, a mouse and a keyboard, supplied through 1 or 2 usb cables (that also supply power), and you're up and running.
      And if you also want to game on it at home, you could add an external GPU docking station to it, which you can leave at home, since you most likely won't need it at work.
      It beats a laptop, since those are more expensive due to the inclusion of a screen (that's at the wrong height, ergonomically speaking), keyboard (that usually is also has ergonomic problems and a weird layout around the arrow keys/numpad) and trackpad (which you don't need if a mouse is available).

      @BingBingWahoo I've seen the rumors! Same for AMD's Strix Halo, I mean, it definitely makes sense for OEMs to want AMD/Intel to make better integrated gfx systems to they can advertise the massive boosts in battery life as well as not have to pay the Nvidia tax. I forsee this trend getting far greater as time goes on as Nvidia loses its grip on pricing reality. RDNA3 and ARC's encoders are damn good now too, so you won't even need an Nvidia chip for multimedia work once they bring more products to market. Can't come soon enough, I say.

    Absolutely love the presentation here Dave …
    I have an ‘old’ Lattepanda Alpha from when they did the original kickstarter and it has been absolutely fantastic - I’ve used it in a 3D printed enclosure that I knocked up on TinkerCAD and can just throw it in my bag with a 12v wall wart and it’s my portable PC that I can just plug in a keyboard, mouse and monitor wherever I am.
    I’d seen that the Sigma was out - it’s a fairly ‘robust’ price but I suspect I’ll end up getting one at some point …
    I am still waiting for my Hackboard2 from their Indegogo project and that will end up strapped to the back of my 27” touchscreen which I use as an oversized UI to Roon (that currently runs on an HP 800 Desktop Mini).
    Anyway - great review Dave, I really like the presentation. Hope you’ll do more … :-)

    2:28 I remember when the Lattepanda Alpha came out, and it too was feature rich, but then it was also HYPER expensive, so I'd expect nothing less. In fact, because these boards are so expensive, I would have felt ripped off if they didn't include enough. (IMO they still don't, basically the bare minimum to charge a premium)

      For people that hates laptop like me, I think this SBC is a good one. Imagine you can bring your work back and forth without a very heavy bag. You only have few options with a laptop, like having a small and light laptop, but you can't stand the very small keyboard and screen, or, like bring a very big laptop with large screen and keyboard, but the downside is it is too heavy. We can always bring portable monitor and full-size keyboard/mouse along with the small laptop, but that defeats the purpose of the laptop, with just added bulk. So why not have this pocket size PC and then you have options to bring portable monitor and keyboard (and they are not that heavy alone!). And once you reached your destination, you can simply plug it on your existing workstation, keeping your other portables in the bag. Plus, laptop battery will only take few hours, and so once you work or game, you'll probably going to plug it most of the time like a normal computer. Plus, permanently plugging your laptop as a workstation will definitely kill its battery overtime. Unplugging it might help, but it's more of a hassle when you can just plug it and leave it without worries.
      Though yes, laptop is very good for people who likes to work in a middle of travel as you don't need to assemble something. I have tried that, but I couldn't work on that kind of setup, I always stop-by to a hotel if I really need to work, for the reasons of guaranteed power source and internet, security, and focus. Which brings me back to this SBC, I can just plug it in once I'm in the hotel!!

    WiFi antennas are tricky. You don't realize how tiny those things are until you see them in front of you. The pictures on the internet deceivingly make them look bigger. We also need to remember that they are fragile and are not meant to be removed and reattached a lot. They are reliable enough if you only mess with them when you need to and don't do it frequently. They were made for you to set them and forget them. Some laptops come with brackets that not only hold the card down but the connectors for the antennas. I have no idea if they work well but none of my laptops ever had that and I never once had a faulty antenna connection. Of course I don't mess with the antennas unless I am installing a new WiFi card. I have the AX200NGW in my laptops and couldn't be happier with it. I am sure there may be better cards out there but I bought the AX200NGW since it is a good popular card. Is it the best? I can't tell, I never had other ones except for the mediocre ones I replaced with it. I also like that one since you can get them cheaply enough if you do some searching for prices. If your laptop has just one antenna cable buy a second one or a card that comes with them.
    I have a laptop that has just one antenna from the factory but what I did was just route the cable to an empty part of the case where it will not touch other electrical parts. I taped the excess cable down. Do not bend or cut the cable, it is a thin coaxial cable and you will ruin it. I just made a one loop coil of the excess cable and attached the antenna. Then I used some good electrical tape to tape the excess in place. It has been working well ever since and I now have better WiFi speed than I did with that mediocre Realtek card. Why do they even use those mediocre things? Is it cost or to make you want to upgrade? When I installed the second cable I did not mess with the screen bezel to do it. That is the key reason it is in the case itself. I just also used the already installed one that is in the screen bezel. I just don't think that we should have to tear apart the display to do these things, it seems like a lot of risk and work and a deliberate attempt to make us want a new laptop instead of upgrading it.

Didn't hear anything mentioned about it...though it isn't really a biggie for nearly all typical use cases. Can you confirm whether or not the onboard Gb Ethernet adapters provide PoE support?
    Thanks for awesome unboxing and review, Dave. You're really quite good at it, even if you don't much care to do it!
    Cheers

Very tempting and pretty much beats the Intel 13th gen Pro NUC as far as I can see and then some.... Pricing is still on the very steep end I suppose but then again, that is the market these days

    Nice video again Dave. I'm looking for a computer that can run in my soundstudio. I'm using Presonus Studio One together with some VST plugins and approximately 20 to 60 track simultaneously. Presonus uses the GPU for drawing the faders, volume graphs in real time. I also need some control software for my Focusrite Digital Interface. It needs to absolutely as quite as possible. What is your guess, would this single board computer fit my needs?

    Please try some FFmpeg encoding testing. That Iris Xe with 80EU's is a transcoding beast, this could make a great Proxmox node with all the ARR's in docker along Plex or Jellyfin fed from a separate NAS. I have a 1235u with the same GPU running Blue Iris/CPAI with 24/7 no substream recording on a dozen 5mp 1440P cameras @5fps and the CPU is ~40% with the GPU ~30% all while only using ~26w at the wall with a 14TB WD Purple drive. I run Frigate along with a Coral in another 1235U that is running bare metal HA using the substreams for notification's and automations and it sit's ~20w all while dealing with ~130 devices split between the Zwave, Zigbee, wifi, 433mhz, and BLE protocol's. I am very happy with the efficiency as I get everything in place but I already see some places where I can squeeze out a fare bit more. This rebuild all started as part of a desire to go solar this year and part of that was gauging usage and trimming the fat so the dual socket servers had to go.

  • @ericbenjaminjr

    I've had nothing but problems with these in the past. I've spent a small fortune on this company. I was always very happy with what they provided and how they performed, but they always had way too many deal breaker problems, like power management and worst of all, sudden death syndrome. I did extensive research and heard nothing but good things. But every time I ran into a problem, I did the research and found just as much negative feedback about the very problems I was having. I'll never buy another. I don't care if they can fly. I've since moved to a hardened industrial solution by compulab. They are half the price, and have an extended voltage and temperature range.. Every one I've ever purchased is still running. And I have a load of them in the field. And even in the wild, I mean literally in the wild. They don't have to be super fast for my application. They have to be reliable, period...

      I so agree, I have had so many problems with Latte Panda SBC and their support really crap. Their support and ecosystem is very poor and don’t be fooled into buying a powerful SBC with crap software. Sorry Latte Panda but your past is catching up with you. All those people that wasted £350 + on a SBC with many design problems and not supporting customers.

      You echo my experience. Latte Panda has little or no support and the hardware is buggy. Don’t fall for all the hype re the performance. It is an expensive brick and I hope people don’t waste their money and time on this platform. Khadas also have some really good SBC and their support is really good and their hardware very stable. I have just ordered an I7 Khadas mind, Khadas do other ARM based SBC that are really top performers.
