Thank you.

From a colleague who runs an X410:

"My CPU is an AMD ThreadRipper 3960 24-core @ 3.8 GHz ; 64 GB DRAM ; UHD
4.4.0.0 release on both host & USRP"

Helo,

The most compact system that I use for recording with device similar to USRP X410 (X411 based on ZCU111 eval board) is Dream Machines RX3080 laptop that has 8 core desktop CPU: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-11700K. The laptop has 64GB of RAM. As a network adapter I’m using Intel network adapter that is connected to Thunderbolt port (Intel Corporation 82599ES 10-Gigabit SFI/SFP+). On side of the PC there is UHD with DPDK and custom C++ program that does the recording. This system can stream 256MS/s to NVME drive.

Best Regards,
Piotr Krysik
