The Raspberry Pi 3 is 64 bits, but what does that mean? Can it run 64 bits apps like a N64 emulator now?
>>
the rpi2 could already emulate n64 games, you stupid fucking idiot.
>>
It's 64 bit as in amd64? How is that even possible? Wouldn't it be slow as fuck on that small processor?
>>

Intel won, I drink your milkshake, get over it.

It's not true 64 bit.
It's 4 16 bit cores, which add up to allow it to execute 64 bit extensions through all 4 threads.
Just like how 8 thread i7 and fx processors can execute 256bit code, because they're using 32 bit cores.

It menas nothing because it lacks memory.

Makes sense. Thanks.

Please be trolling

>>53321587
Jesus this better be bait.
>>
>>53324079
Why?
It honestly makes sense.
4 times 16 is 64 and 8 times 32 is 256

There's no such thing as a 16-bit ARM core.

Armv8 is 16 bit compatible and uses 16 bit instructions

No.

Unfortunately not, the N64 used a secondary "Reality Coprocessor". The RPi3 has no such coprocessor.

Odroid C2 was announced on same day. Only $5 but more than double benchmark speeds. Just ordered one for media center/6th generation emulation.

>>53325538
That benchmark compares to rPi 2, not 3.

No, as in AArch64.

enjoy your non-mainline 3.1.x-kernel with proprietary closed-source driver-blobs.
