I was interested until 4GB of RAM. I have 8GB on my 13 year old Thinkpad x201, and that’s sometimes not enough!
yeah but how fast is that 13 year old ram
I would be ok with 6Gb of ram but 4Gb isn’t enough.
4GB in 2023 is comical. My Lenovo tablet has 6GB and I think that is really the new floor for any kind of desktop use. I have a 4GB Raspberry Pi and it makes an adequate desktop but it would still be better with more RAM.
4gb ram is unusable, can you add ram to it?
zsawp or zram will be your friend on a device like this
I’d rather use some sbc on rk3588, tho. It shouldn’t be too hard to pack one of SBCs with it into a laptop case given they often expose eDP (which laptop displays use) or mipi dsi (which is convertible to eDP, but I’m not sure here).
Otherwise, it’s good to have an option to run a proper os on such a low-spec machine. Windows on 4gb ram, eesh
