StarFive sent me one of their VisionFive 2 RISC-V SBC for evaluation and review. I got the model with dual Gigabit Ethernet and 8GB RAM, and I’ll report my experience with the…
A new RISC-V concept laptop design is in the works, known as the Balthazar Personal Computing Device. This laptop design is designed from the ground up to be a completely open-source laptop,…
The Balthazar Personal Computing Device (BPCD) is an open-source hardware 13.3-inch laptop with a RISC-V, Arm, or FPGA module and designed to be upgradable, expandable, and sustainable. The developers say…
FOSDEM | The Balthazar project is designing an all-Free Hardware laptop based around RISC-V and several existing standards. Balthazar is an interesting hardware project which we were told about at the…
RISC-V processors, which until several years ago were considered auxiliary processors for specific functions, appear to be garnering support for an entirely different type of role — high-performance computing. Read…
If RISC-V is to become a viable processor architecture for servers, its software ecosystem will need a solid hypervisor. Which is why The Register noted in 2021 that a project had commenced to…
ANALYSIS | The RISC-V architecture looks set to become more prevalent in the high-performance computing (HPC) sector, and could even become the dominant architecture, at least according to some technical…
