    Verdict

    Banana Pi BPI-F3

    7 / 10 Expert Rating

    Octa-core RISC-V with dual Ethernet and PCIe, in a far smaller package than the Jupiter.

    Turing Machines Turing RK1 Compute Module

    7.5 / 10 Expert Rating

    RK3588-class compute in a swappable cluster node, useful only with a Turing Pi 2 carrier.
