A community for the discussion of all single board computers. Raspberry Pi is ok, but there are so many other boards now that get looked over that deserve attention.

Post news, questions, your setups, guides, anything that has to do with SBCs. Server wide rules apply

Well, PCIe is a newish feature for SBCs I've not seen before, dual gigabit ethernet is also pretty nice

Raspberry Pi 5 has PCIe. So do quite a few others. How is that new?

Cmon, go look for the NanoPi M4 - released in 2018 - had PCIe. Just because you’re stuck in the Raspberry Pi money grab doesn’t meant there aren’t other things out there.

Let that sink in 😂 the NanoPi had PCIe since 2018… and if you want to OG, then the SheevaPlug has gigabit Ethernet in 2009, before the Pi existed.

No clue why you're being downvoted, you're entirely right and have a point...

Because the Pi cult can’t handle the truth. Do you want to know another good way of getting downvoted? Just say that all those SBCs aren’t a very good deal because for something on the 100€ price range you can get a second hand mini PC and have a CPU 10x more powerful, way more stable with real 2 PCIe slots, all the accessories, a better GPU, etc etc 😂
