Anyone have any updates on this one? I haven't seen anything online about it since those prototype looking pictures were leaked. The only specs I've found were from:
https://hothardware.com/news/gpd-win-max-handheld-gaming-pc-leaks-amd-ryzen-embedded-apu
which is real old at this point.
So - any new news on this one? Any idea what quarter of what year they're likely to get it on the market?
I cannot really talk about it, but I suppose I can say there has been development issues.
Basically AMD provide almost zero support for embedded chips and basically no reference designs. BIOS and driver support is also very poor
This combined with the fact that everyone in China was trained to develop Intel HW not AMD- due to the fact Intel spends tons getting training material into education facilites in China.
The two things above mean it has been difficult
They have had to face perplexing issues with almost no help from AMD, as has everyone developing using AMD embedded,
This is the reason everyone that has tried to develop using AMD embedded has struggled.
TL;DR. AMD embedded is a shit show
As for when the Indiegogo will start , there is no solid answer as it depends on how they progress
