@harishpillay @lupyuen have you seen the visionfive2 ? #riscv is a viable raspberry pi competitor already
@tealeg @harishpillay @lupyuen VF2 is mostly closed, very hard to have docs from SiFive (that does used U74) and other parts docs. Instead SiPeed has made a THead based board, specs are already far better, SoC processor cores are opensource (available on Github) and faster than SiFive one, have a better version of PowerVR GPU, and everything is well documented.

The moreinteresting board from Sipeed than VF2 here: https://www.cnx-software.com/2022/12/27/lichee-pi-4a-risc-v-sbc-raspberry-pi-4-th1520-processor/
Sources of CPU cores (4C910 has main CPU+1C906+DSP for audio + 1*E902 microcontroller, both RISC-V): https://github.com/T-head-Semi
@lupyuen this is getting to be even more interesting as the clock speed increases and RAM increases. Getting to be a contender for laptops/desktops.
