Why haven't we seen boards with Power9 / MicroWatt?

It's not that I have any particular loyalty to PowerPC or anything. It just happened to be the most mature, complete and performant solution available.

Honestly? I'd love to, if the resulting device were decent quality, priced more in line with the performance expectations of RISC-V, and open source.

C'mon, Raptor. Sell us a RISC-V Shrike.

MPC7500:
You can already buy RISC-V systems today.

But the performance is really sluggish.

ClassicHasClass:
Yeah, I haven't found a RISC-V system remotely in POWER9's class, let alone Power10 or (presumably) S1. So far it's a lot of sizzle and very little steak.

I wouldn't mind a Raptor RISC-V system, but I wouldn't want it to distract from whatever the nextgen OpenPOWER box is. Although I say that as a PowerPC bigot, I think I would get a lot more out of that than any RISC-V system right now.

lepidotos:
If they could make one in the ~$800 range, I'd consider it as a NAS board. Don't need that much power for one of those.

MPC7500:
HiFive Unmatched $740
