Video Description
Dave demos and benchmarks the new LattePanda Sigma single-board computer, which features 12 cores, 16 threads, 16GB RAM, 500GB Storage, dual 2.5Gn NICs, dual 10Gb USB, dual 40Gb Thunderbolt, and much more! For my book on ASD: https://amzn.to/42ykB2i And it can run Doom! Tools Used: USB Power Meter: https://amzn.to/3pgO964 Wera Screwdriver Set: https://amzn.to/416QnSM LattePanda Sigma: https://www.dfrobot.com/product-2671.html?tracking=645891eaa02ef Note that the WD drive is in a PCIe-4.0x4 slot whereas the Samsung is in a PCIe-3.0x4 slot, so the perf numbers reflect the M.2 slot performance and should not be used to compare the drives. Errata: At one point I say the CPU has 8 perf cores and 4 economy cores - I said it backwards. It's 4 perf cores (hyperthreaded) plus 8 economy cores.

I am not now nor have I ever been a spokesperson for Microsoft, and retired from my technical role almost 20 years ago. Update: I've had a report of a Sigma failing after being powered by USB-C, and the email from Latte Pande advises "only power with the power supply supplied LattePanda." It worked fine for me, but it appears their USB-C implementation must have a fault if they are advising against its use.
