have yet to see a normal motherboard where the CPU is socketed (iGPU is a waste of sand on desktop); the ram is slotted and not a soldered upsell - mobile is the market for LPDDR.

- RetroTechie 3y agoThis looks like a SoM + carrier board. So at least in theory one could swap out the SoM (but yes, cpu + RAM soldered on there).
