'World's first' open-source Armv9 motherboard surfaces — Radxa Orion O6's pricing starts at $200 for the 8GB RAM model

Radxa Orion O6.

A collaborative effort between Arm China, CIX, and Radxa has produced what is claimed to be the world's first open-source Armv9 motherboard. The new Radxa Orion O6 might be more accurately described as an SBC (single-board computer), with its SoC and the RAM quota chosen at purchase soldered in place.

The Radxa Orion O6 is a pretty significant (Mini-ITX) SBC. As such, it is packed with interfaces, ports, and expansion options (except for RAM) and has a rather powerful SoC (System on Chip). Right now, it works with a few Linux flavors, but Radxa says broader OS support, including Windows and Android, is on the way.
