It's weird af that Geerling ignores nVidia. They have a line of ARM based SBCs with GPUs from Maxwell to Ampere. They have full software support for OpenGL, CUDA, and etc. For the price of an RPi 5 + discreet GPU, you can get a Jetson Orin Nano (8 GB RAM, 6 A78 ARM cores, 1024 Ampere cores.) All in a much better form factor than a Pi + PCIe hat and graphics card.
I get the fun of doing projects, but if what you're interested in is a working ARM based system with some level of GPU, it can be had right now without being "in the shop" twice a week with a science fair project.
