Is the appeal the direct PCI slot? Mesa has a just released 7c81 that the raspberryPi sits right on top using SPI but it’s not an anything I/O card therefore you have to use it with another card. Last I checked they didn’t release the 7c80 yet but that card has useable I/O onboard. The 7c80 would be a great little package with a rpi4. From what I’ve been told the card is ready but something software wise is not ready yet.
