I have yet to start regretting mine

Orange Pi of some sort. That's ~$10 worth regret purchase.

I sent mine back. Waiting for 3000 series.
It hurts though. Other parts are just waiting.

What do you regret about it? Legitimately interested as I kind of wanted to buy these for general purpose micro Linux machines for different things. Monitoring, cameras, SSH tunnel, etc.

X299 HEDT
This shit boots slower than my '11 Sandy bridge laptop. 16 seconds until bios logo appear vs 2 seconds on SNB.
It also lack iGPU so I cannot install hackintosh unless i pay another 200usd for a burner housefire gpu.

Like regretting buying and eating a tub of ice cream.

Hello intel shill

reee. i think i may go for it depending on how my sandbox for this project turns out, thank you for the advice

Why on earth would you regret purchasing board that runs a full desktop Linux for $10

Are you just too dumb to think of something awesome to do with it?

Here's 3 AMD NUC competitors if you want to avoid the meltdown/zombieload ordeal.

Also keep a eye out for the new SFX form factor.
AMD is spear heading it to compete with NUC.

>Falling for the bait.

i've heard good things about AMD's price/performance and power draws before, but frankly those offerings aren't too competitive as far as i can tell :(
i am still looking at benchmarks and standing up VMs, so i will re-research and reconsider AMD then, but i'll probably go with intel if nothing's changed

Asus T100chi, it was an okay tablet at best, and a terrible laptop. The worst part was the keyboard, having trouble connecting and being in general terrible to type on, so i actually hauled around an external bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I feel for the 2010 Tablet Top meme, feels bad man.

Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1
It looked pretty nice. It was priced pretty nice.
Samsung dropped support for that sucker almost immediately. It had it's usb port in the bottom but Samsung had no dock for sale. Even aliexpress at the time had only like 1 cover for sale. The headphone jack broke weeks after the warranty expired and it cost more to repair than it was worth.
Lineage dropped it after android 7.
It's now living it's remaining days as media player next to my treadmill.

Locked Haswell i5

7950 maybe. 7970 no hard no. I can tell you as someone who had a 7970 I have that literal exact EVGA 670 on my desk right now (not in use) but the 7970 was a hot mess and replaced with the 670. On paper it wasn't as good but man was it nice to play vidya at something less than 80c.

Jow Forums pass

It's like reading things upside-down reveals their evil.

Then why did you even buy it?

Dumb consumerist sheep.

I own an Orange Pi Zero and don't regret it.
