For what? As a router or small server for running DNS, PiHole, and related services I'd recommend one of the Rk3588 systems, I bought a NanoPi R6S. The 8gb flavor is $120, $140 with a nice metal case. It's pretty fast, I compared compiling rust and it was 6-7 times faster than a RPi4 8GB. Even has two 2.5gbe interfaces.

Are you able to run a mainline kernel, or are you stuck with the vendor patched BSP kernel?

  Not yet, all NanoPi images use the same not upstreamed 5.10.110 kernel. However progress has been made, various reports of it working, some progress, some accepted patches, some rejected.

    Thanks. If pcie support in 6.3 pans out, that isn't long to wait at all.
