Arm is all grown up... ECC DDR5, PCIe Gen 5, socketed CPU, full UEFI, install Linux or Windows without any special images.

@geerlingguy the funny part is that "full UEFI" and "without any special images" is something we have on 64-bit ARM for years already.
In server space.

@geerlingguy Are you aware of such a client/consumer device that would be closer to a x86 PC, somewhere between a NUC and the ATX form factor? For those like me who would like to try something […]
@geerlingguy can a AMD GPU be plugged into it without needing kernel patches to work around PCI quirks and nix performance?
@geerlingguy Especially the "full UEFI" and "without any special images" are a relief. Hopefully that will spread a bit beyond four-figure server platforms in the coming years.
@geerlingguy Well that would explain the btop CPU block.
@geerlingguy Full UEFI is a game changer! 🤯
@geerlingguy in the meantime, proxmox still thinks it's a niche market... :(
@geerlingguy That's a lot of fans.
@geerlingguy Just in time for the age of RISC-V!! 😝
@geerlingguy Great stuff 🤩
