This tiny Intel Xeon-toting PC board can take your Raspberry Pi any day
That Raspberry Pi 4B feeling a bit pokey? Asus' Aaeon division has managed to fit an eight-core Xeon processor, complete with error correcting memory support, and a PCIe 4.0 x8 slot into a four-inch single board computer.packs substantially higher performance into a rather diminutive form factor.
Speaking of which, the board can be equipped with up to 64GB of DDR4 operating at a relatively quick 3200 megatransfers/sec, by way of a pair of SODIMM memory slots located adjacent to the CPU. The kit also features no shortage of I/O with a pair NICs operating at 2.5 Gbit/sec and 1 Gbit/sec, dual displayport 1.2, HDMI 2.0, four 10Gbit/sec USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, and a full complement of USB 2.0, VGA, and serial headers for additional connectivity. For storage, the board accommodates a half-size m.2 mSATA/NVMe SSD, and a pair of SATA interfaces.
Finally, the SBC features an open-ended PCIe Gen 4.0 x8 slot for additional connectivity. However, due to the limited power budget afforded the slot — just 25W compared to a standard PCIe x16 slot's 75W — you won't be attaching any high-end GPUs or accelerators without hacking together some sort of supplemental power.
