While the original ZimaBoard shipped with Intel Apollo Lake processors that were already more than four years old at the time that the board launched, the ZimaBoard 2 is powered by a current-gen Intel Twin Lake processor that should bring a significant boost in CPU and graphics performance. The company says users can expect a 200 percent performance boost, even though the new model runs cooler and quieter and uses less power while idle.
I thought a lot about buying the first version of this. Glad I waited. Very cool. Homelabbers: have some gear lust to start your weekend. Happy Friday!
My question is whether it’s competitive. Because it looks like a gimmick to me. The other options seem to have a lot more choices and options.
Plus IceWhale sold my information so I don’t trust them.
If you want PCIe there’s no shortage of USFF office PCs from Dell and Lenovo.
It very well could be an expensive gimmick, their last Zima boards certainly were. As for the selling of your information, thank you for the warning.
