Jetson Tegra K1 Devkit - Unboxing

Unboxing my new Jetson Tegra K1 devkit for the first time. I got this board hoping to have it act as my main onboard computer to my quadcopter. The TK1 devkit, however, is a fully functional computer, with the 192-kepler-core processor at the helm.

The Tegra K1 Devkit comes with a host of goodies, including mini PCIe, 1 usb 3.0, sata, hdmi, rca, ethernet, microphone/headphone, tons of IO, 16 gb of onboard storage, 2gb of ram, sd slot, and more.

The Tegra K1 SoC is mainly focused on for use in mobile, but obviously has many other applications.

William Ahner I would, but my USB port stopped working. I was going to cover a FPS that I got, but cannot atm. There are quite a few games that will run on linux, but this processor has a very specific architecture that most games simply will not run on. I was working on that and then the USB port just puckered out on me!

I'm getting this as a desktop replacment coz its quite cheap compared to a desktop and its small and uses 10-15w so it ends up even cheaper

That "Lego" thing seemed to me like soft pads. It is so that the board can sit comfortably on a table. Reason why they come in the way they did is to save money on assembly, I think.

Can you do a video of running a steam game on it like half life 2 or another basic fps?

lego = standoff feet for the board if you leave it on the desk.
