No PCIe connectivity is very unfortunate. I think these ARM/RISC-V SBCs are very attractive in combination with high-throughput NICs (or if you're into AI, things like the Tenstorrent cards). That'd be very nice for building smaller prototypes of 100G+ edge compute, CDNs, cloud, serverless platforms etc. without having to shell out for an Ampere Altra (or x86 equivalent).<p>Nowadays there's such a big move towards heterogeneity that good PCIe connectivity feels like table stakes for SBCs.
