  That “SBC” has a strange price point because it is Intel and costs 250$. For 100€ you can find an HP Mini with an i5 8th gen + 16GB of ram + 256GB NVME that obviously has a case, a LOT of I/O, PCIe (m2) comes with a power adapter and outperforms a RPi5 in all possible ways.

    I found it for $165. Definitely wouldn’t pay $250.

      Still have to buy power supply, case, cooling, etc… And it has an older Intel CPU too.

      There are newer Intel N100 boxes with a case, PSU, cooling, and so on for the same price or less sometimes.

        Do you know of any newer Intel SBCs with the same IO? I would like to take a look
