Maybe time to get one of those fancy new Raspberry Pis...

This got me thinking about perhaps building an arm/linux cruncher. But instead of going for the cheapest solution (RP4) which is based on Cortex-A72 (announced in 2015), perhaps there is something more powerful and newer. Are there any boards or computers based on anything more modern than Cortex-A72?
The Snapdragon 845/850 is based on the Cortex-A75 which came out last year. But I find only android devices with it.
Edit: Found one, the Lenovo Yoga C630. Looks like ~$700 new, or ~$500 on eBay. Yikes. That is at least 5 of the 4gb RP4 with all the extras. I guess all that cost is due to things like the display, keyboard, etc. Back to the drawing board.

If your looking for a decent arm machine you need too look at thunder x, just don't mind the prices

On another note I have my 4 overclocked to 1750mhz running solid for 2 days on universe@home compared to my other pi's
3b avg 8 hours
3b+ avg 7.25 hours
4b stock avg 5 hours
4b @ 1750mhz avg 4.25
As far as I can tell, unless you want to spend thousands of dollars on a ThunderX2 server, the only alternative is RP4. Finally a 2gb version showed up as available on Amazon, so I bought it. I kinda think they are lying...

This is kind of interesting bit still about $400 for. Full build.

My RP4 arrived. Which linux do you all use for crunching? Raspbian, Ubuntu, or...?

I'm using raspbian, just be aware it's only has 32bit support.
