Hardware specs

With the announcement of the C-8 hub, I was wondering if anyone had tech specs on it (and potentially the C-5 and C-7). Aside from the newer z-wave chip, and now external antenna and built in wireless, does the C-8 offer a faster processor? more memory?

Just curious as I do have a solid z-wave mesh running off my C-5, have my Zigbee running off my C-7 (i know, it should be the other way around, but i'm too lazy to migrate all the z-wave to the C-7), each hub connected through hub mesh so a pretty smooth experience for me and the ability to control all my devices from a single pane.

See thread:

Why Would You Buy a C-8?

Didn’t see anyone answer your question specifically. Same ram, same cpu. In discussions the thinking shared was that ram and cpu aren’t limitations for the vast majority of users since it’s really an IO intensive device and that’s where the improvements have been made. That being said there have been some improvements in both memory management and cpu load management but it is my understanding that those are platform changes that should yield benefit on the C7 as well. Pretty sure they are i…

@dadarkgtprince I would move all the z-wave to the C8. Given the power, all my devices now connect straight to the hub (well except for one lock which routes through a repeater). Has improved my mesh drastically. Migration of all your devices would take less than 5 minutes.
