Hey! Does anybody have any information about if and when a company might offer ARM64 for general desktop use? I would like to build my own in the same way that I might build a desktop PC out of an Intel or AMD processor.

    Haven’t seen any socketable ARM processors outside the server space. You can find plenty of single board computers with ARM chips on them (look up Rock pi) that you can put in a case. And some ITX developer boards (kinda pricey). Or you can get a server motherboard, they come in ITX form factor (not cheap).

      Dang! Yeah, I looked at getting an Ampere proc and the price just for the proc was like 5K. Um, hang on while I shit out 5K. 🫠😆
