idk

2018-09-08 15:27:30 UTC  

windows on arm is pretty slow tbh

2018-09-08 15:27:34 UTC  

mostly as a lot of the appls are emulated

2018-09-08 15:27:34 UTC  

it is, but you can do it

2018-09-08 15:27:36 UTC  

Is there like some guide for when ARM is the better solution?

2018-09-08 15:27:44 UTC  

depends on implementation

2018-09-08 15:27:50 UTC  

it's pretty much as all of the low poered chips are ARM

2018-09-08 15:27:50 UTC  

do you want to run existing applications -> dont use arm

2018-09-08 15:27:59 UTC  

as only intel/amd can make x86 chips

2018-09-08 15:28:05 UTC  

acutally i guess via/zhaoxin

2018-09-08 15:28:08 UTC  

but eh

2018-09-08 15:28:21 UTC  

and they're all focused on servers atm

2018-09-08 15:29:54 UTC  

isnt kryonaut conductive though

2018-09-08 15:30:14 UTC  

```
no electrical conductivity!!!```

2018-09-08 15:30:16 UTC  

🤔

2018-09-08 15:30:23 UTC  

maybe im thinking of liquid metal (tm)

2018-09-08 15:30:32 UTC  

@bentech I thought so yeah but now we have 6w intel Am I correct in the assumption that ARM is better for low powered chips then? @Goz3rr Yeah but it cannot possibly be that simple or intel and arm tablets wouldn't be competing at the same price level

2018-09-08 15:30:52 UTC  

again biggest issue is implementation

2018-09-08 15:31:06 UTC  

reason arm is better for low powered is most of the implementations so far have been for low powered applications

2018-09-08 15:31:31 UTC  

while x86 implementations are largely focused on servers/sometimes laptops

2018-09-08 15:31:45 UTC  

you have seen some very low powered x86 stuff though

2018-09-08 15:31:50 UTC  

thanks gearbest

2018-09-08 15:31:57 UTC  

e.g the asus x86 zen phone

2018-09-08 15:31:57 UTC  

So x86 is generally better though less developed in low power applications than ARM, do I get that right? @bentech

2018-09-08 15:32:04 UTC  

it's not generally better

2018-09-08 15:32:05 UTC  

it's just different

2018-09-08 15:32:37 UTC  

Well... ARM was ditched in consumer usage for a reason until smartphones surfaced, or not? @bentech

2018-09-08 15:32:46 UTC  

used in some stuff

2018-09-08 15:32:47 UTC  

see DS

2018-09-08 15:32:51 UTC  

err

2018-09-08 15:33:03 UTC  

etc

2018-09-08 15:33:04 UTC  

ARM is in more consumer shit than you think

2018-09-08 15:33:07 UTC  

yteah

2018-09-08 15:33:19 UTC  

basically every piece of electronics will have an ARM based microprocessor

2018-09-08 15:33:20 UTC  

it's used in lots of microcontrollers now isn't it?

2018-09-08 15:33:21 UTC  

My bad, I should have said personal computing

2018-09-08 15:33:21 UTC  

*Routers*

2018-09-08 15:33:51 UTC  

Switches

2018-09-08 15:33:58 UTC  

@Cole bought the chinkbook <:pepestressed:327933525124841482>

2018-09-08 15:34:02 UTC  

Smart household devices

2018-09-08 15:34:04 UTC  

in personal computing the only other arch with limited success was powerpc (IBM)
