A new alternative to the Raspberry Pi has been presented. Called the Kimχ Micro, the Raspberry Pi Zero-sized micro SBC has a quad-core processor and a mPCIe slot for adding PCIe cards.

Needs a riser cable and an RTX 2080 Ti. Somehow, some way, it must be done.
Powerful? 1 GB RAM???
Alternative to pi 2?
Any idea of the mPCIe bus speed? It would be amazing to add another wired network interface and make it into a small router but if the lanes are just routed through the USB bus there really isn't a point.

According to the SoC block diagram (http://"https://www.nxp.com/products/processors-and-microcontrollers/arm-processors/i-mx-applications-processors/i-mx-8-processors/i-mx-8m-mini-arm-cortex-a53-cortex-m4-audio-voice-video:i.MX8MMINI") it has a single lane of PCIe 2.0, so hopefully that's what is connected to that port.
