What's the price of that evaluation board? Can the CPU run faster than in embedded scenario thanks to better cooling?


A comparable example: https://boundarydevices.com/product/nitrogen6x-board-imx6-ar...

This kind of thing is stuck in a volume trap: you need to produce enough units to make it cheaper than a PC, but nobody will buy it until you do. In the meantime, people are buying ARM tablets and 'mini-PC's from various Chinese OEMs, but they're non-modular units.

The modularity of the PC is almost an accident of history.
