#1 CubieBoards

Post by Dirk Broer »

Got myself a new -well, 2nd hand- play thingy: a CubieBoard4/CC-A80
It has an Allwinner A80 octa-core SOC, featuring 4 Cortex-A15 cores and 4 Cortex-A7 cores in big. LITTLE configuration.

I'll post some benchmarks soon.

Fixed the problem.

When you added the table you had line breaks between both the tr and td tags. phpBB, by default, reads those line breaks and adds a br tag.

I've upgraded the custom bbcode to deal with line breaks after a tr, th and td.

I've also updated the css to ensure large images within tables are sized to fit the table cell. The images in your table are 550px wide but should now format correctly in all modern browsers.

For those who think "the cubieboard3/cubietruck casings looks great, but no mere dual cores for me":
CubieBoard has a CubieTruck Plus in development, based upon the octa-core Allwinner H8.
The 2000MHz Allwinner H8 is a very close relative of the 1600 MHz octa-core Allwinner A83t, the SOC that powers the Banana Pi M3.
Another feature that sets it apart from the A83t is the support for OpenCL 1.1, whereas the A83t supports OpenCL 1.0
