Waiting on my AMD #BC250 card 💻🔥 and hoping to snag an M.2 from a friend 🤞💾

Once those land, it’s time to start building and experimenting 🛠️⚡

This little project is gonna be a really fun one to put together 😎🚀

I got 2 of those AMD BC-250 boards in today. I'm going to set one up as an emulation box, and the other to mess around with.

#bc250 #linux

Angled top-down view of the BC-250 blade server, showing its slender GPU sized footprint, and my janky fan shroud in the distance. Has a USB (keyboard), display port, Ethernet, and USB key plugged in. NVMe drive can be seen on the board, next to a large heatsink that stretches across the card

I will say compile time is shockingly good, even though the NVMe drive is limited to PCIe 2.0 x4 bandwidth!

The CPU has 6 cores/12 threads (instead of 8/16), and it's possible the highly parallel GDDR6 memory actually *kicks arse* when parallel compiling! I.e. no cores are starved. #BC250 #Linux

finally got to use @1bitsquared.com @whitequark.org @esden.net & friends amazing #GlasgowInterfaceExplorer more today to in circuit flash the BIOS. of the asrock / amdl #BC250 #Sony #PlayStation5 -like up cycled #APU www.instagram.com/p/DEry-h2IIjY/
