Sipeed sent a NanoCluster - up to 7 nodes in the palm of your hand!
At least, that's what the photos show. Does it run when you put in seven Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5s? And how are thermals, power, and performance?
Sipeed did not pay for this video nor have any say in its content (or a chance to review it before it went live). But because they sent this early review sample to me for my testing, I put the 'Includes Paid Sponsorship' tag on the video.
