[01] SBC Clusters are a terrible value, but they're fun anyway
Pictured above is the new DeskPi Super4C installed in an 8U mini rack.
The Super4C is a 4-node Raspberry Pi CM5 cluster board that solves two
pain points I had with the older Super6C. I was testing this board
around the same time I helped kick off the SBCC 2026, the Single Board
Cluster Competition for students. A dozen or so university teams
squared off to run the best mini HPC cluster with a budget of $6,000,
and a couple days to benchmark six HPC workloads.
