The arrival of the first RVA23 chips, which is expected next month, will change the status quo.

Besides RVA23 compliance, these are dramatically faster than earlier chips, enough for most people's everyday computing needs i.e. web browsing, video decoding and such. K3 got close to rpi5 per-core performance, but with more cores, better peripherals, and 32GB RAM possible, although unfortunately current RAM prices are no good.

And it'll only get better from there, as other, much faster, RVA23 chips like Tenstorrent Alastor ship later this year.

s/Alastor/Atlantis/g.

Alastor is something else; a core from Tenstorrent that is considerably smaller than Ascalon.
