New schematics released:
https://gitlab.com/power-progress-community/oshw-powerpc-notebook/powerpc-laptop-mobo/-/blob/master/PPC_notebook_electrical_schematics_v0.5.pdfhttps://www.slideshare.net/RobertoInnocenti1/electrical-schematic-open-hardware-powerpc-notebook-motherboard-v-05"
We just received a new version of the schematics (v0.5) that raise the power consumption footprint up to 90W in order to support higher end MXM 3 video cards that may reach a maximum of 55W under heavy load. As an example, the AMD Radeon E9174 (GCN 4.0) has a TDP of 50W. [...] the work on the PCB design [...] can move forward and we estimate it could be completed by September 2020. [...] we decided to postpone the deadline of the current Donation Campaign (Phase 1A) to the 30th of July 2020."

the work on the PCB design can move forward and we estimate it could be completed by the End of September 2020. [...] As we were unable to reach the goal by July, we are forced to postpone the deadline of the current Donation Campaign (Phase 1A) to the 30th of August 2020."
