The DC-ROMA II is the fastest RISC-V laptop and is odd

Framework 13 DC-ROMA II DeepComputing Laptop with external HDMI display

Inside this Framework 13 laptop is a special mainboard developed by DeepComputing in collaboration with Framework. It has an 8-core RISC-V processor, the ESWIN 7702X—not your typical AMD, Intel, or even Arm SoC. The full laptop version I tested costs $1119 and gets you about the performance of a Raspberry Pi.

A Pi 4—the one that came out in 2019.

But unlike the Pi 4, this eats up 25 watts of power at idle, meaning the poor battery only lasts 2-3 hours.
