Verdict
FriendlyElec NanoPC-T6
8.5 / 10 Expert Rating
One of the strongest all-around RK3588 boards for developers who want NVMe storage and desktop-class RAM without a carrier board.
AAEON (UP) UP Xtreme i11
8.3 / 10 Expert Rating
The most powerful general-purpose x86 board in this roundup -- laptop-tier performance in SBC form, but priced and powered for industrial and prosumer projects, not casual hobbyists.
