"I don't know what bubble you are living in"
My bubble includes a number of SBCs and embedded boards from Advantech, most with Ryzen embedded (V1000 class) CPUs.
SBC is too vague I suppose. Past the hobbyist level of SBC, there are many* vendors with Core i5-1340P and similar CPUs today. These are superior to a 2018 i5-9600k. That's a 2023 device, which aligns with what I concluded at the time.
In 2025+, such a CPU is not a desktop class device, and is sufficient in a modest laptop in lower power form. I use one for light Linux development work.
* LattePanda Sigma, ASROCK NUC, DFROBOT, Premio and many NAS and industrial devices.
The Raspberry Pi 5 results on Geekbench 6 are all over the place. A score between 500 to 900 in single core and a 2000 multi core score.
Radxa 4 is an SBC based around the N100 and it basically gets the same or slightly higher performance as the Raspberry Pi 5.
Meanwhile the i5-9600K gets a score of 1677 in single core, which is 83% of the performance of the entire Raspberry Pi 5 and gets a score of 6199 when using multiple cores, that's 3x the performance.
I'd call this at least "Laptop class" and you even admitted yourself back in 2025 that you're using a processor on that level.
