Hi,
I've been looking around for an Arm development platform. Banana Pi seems to be about the best value for money. I've been looking around at some TV boxes. However, I see mixed opinions about these being a option. SBCs seem to be almost twice the price of similar spec Arm TV box. Processing power and memory are mostly my priorities. Anything over 4GB seems insanely expensive.
I can do SMD soldering work. So modding at TV box is an option.
Are there any options for an 8gb Octa core system that isn't going to cost more than a decent PC?
