      Nvidia has Arm drivers for their GPUs, not sure about AMD. It should be possible to build an Arm laptop with a dedicated GPU.

      Edit: BTW there are already Arm PCs you can buy which have PCIe, and can use (at least Nvidia) desktop GPUs.

        Wait really? I can build an ATX Arm system? I’m a SBC whore but I never even considered a full desktop build…

          I think the situation is different for their mobile hardware. IIRC the Nintendo Switch’s Nvidia Tegra chip had an official Mesa driver, which made it really easy for modders to get Linux and Android working on the machine.
