I’m not sure how you make this comparison. You are comparing a processor to a 
SOC (System on Chip). The AM5728 has direct access to GPIO, SPI, I2C, PCIe, 
USB3, UART, etc. The Pentium does not have direct access to these, but access 
PCI, USB3, UART via North/South bridge. No direct access to any of the other 
peripherals supported by the AM5728. In addition, the AM5728 supports Dual 
CortexM4, Dual DSP and Quad PRU. Comparing these boards makes no sense. They 
are used for completely different markets.

John
