gollark: What do you plan to actually use that for?
gollark: You can get something like 100W (20V/5A, I think), as USB-C is also used for laptops.
gollark: Given that you'd probably be missing out on modern fast CPU designs, and can't use x86-64 with extensions because licensing, emulation might be faster.
gollark: But a RISC-V one.
gollark: Really? Isn't PCIe a bit high latency compared to onboard RAM?
