Sweet. I'll monitor this an order a non-gpu version when it comes out. Most of my stuff just needs a serial console.

Hilariously, on one of the slides posted to Twitter, the phase 1 chip won't have low-speed peripherals. But I'm sure they'll include at least one serial port. No one is going to get very far without even a serial console.

The phase 1 SoC is all I'm interested in for now. The lowest-size LPDDR4 part I could find is 256MB, which isn't a lot, but enough for what I want to do. Having that RAM, and networking or USB, will be enough for me to buy one. Assuming a reasonable price, of course.

'Only' 128MB but https://groupgets.com/manufacturers/good-stuff-department/pr... is capable of running a linux capable core and it's tiny (Adafruit's Feather form factor)

That's actually not a bad little board.

I've been laser focused on RV64, but RV32 is nearly identical. It is a shame the current VexRiscv bitstream for this board doesn't seem to support atomics though.
