Hi Steven

Do I read your prev post correct that you have a new orangipi 2 with H3 (quad core,hdmi,wlan,VGA)
I have ordered via alibaba 2 orangepi (because I need VGA + HDMI) and 1 orangepi plus (I want to Test the speed)
If standard new Orangepi have H3 quad core VGA and HDMI can you change my ORDER into 3 such Orangepi (plus a additional
case+powersupply for the price difference)?
Thank you

Does this mean, that you have in future no Orangepi with VGA?

Orange Pi has VGA

Is there a special reason, that you do not support Dual Monitor Systems in future with your new fast boards?

I think this is sad.

Orange Pi 2 mini as same as Raspberry Pi 2, Orange Pi 2 mini have allwinner H3 soc. beyond Raspberry ...

First of all a good new year to all Orange Pi lovers! May the year of the goat be a good one for you!

So Orange Pi 2 will not have SATA and Gigabit ethernet any more ?
That would be a pity. I am working on porting the Amahi home server (www.amahi.org) and gigabit ethernet is quite nice for that.
Any indication on when this will be available?

BtW: I propose to give the Orange P2 its own thread.
(and can we get rid of the verification code I have to type every time I submit a reply)?

Its taxing on a GPU. It pulls more power and lets off more heat. Plus it takes up valuable space on a board and increases the overall cost.

The clock speed is higher but the mali 400 series isnt even a proper gpu. Its just fragment cores. ...

I am only interested in them as NAS Media Servers, the GPU is irrelevant and I don't even test it in benchmarks
