Just get a Raspberry Pi 5 instead which is much, much, much cheaper and probably faster too.
This thing doesn't got GPU, audio, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, M.2 slot, SATA, or anything.

This is very exciting! By far the biggest problem we have is not necessarily a lack of chips, its a lack of motherboards.
Obviously there is a long way to go(and this is only a dev board), but if we ever have any hopes of moving this way in the mainstream we will need options on the ATX front.

Some people doing comparisons here are also forgetting the supply situation. Competitors got years in which they developed mainboard chips like controllers which are crucial components in the ecosystem. You can not simply develop RISC-V cores but you need compatible sub chips on the motherboard too like for example compatible pcie chips. This needs time. If you want some finished products without much exploring then buy an older but mature arm SoM. And If you really want to tinker, explore and try out new stuff then go RISC-V.

did you even bother reading? because it has most of these. and the P550 are A75 class cores. It should perform better then it.
Cortex-A75 is very old, it is from 2017, it more than half a decade old.
Performing better than Cortex-A75 is not impressive. It is lame.

also below is what is said, I think this adequately covers pretty much everything you listed
Expansion Capabilities
x16 PCIe® Gen 3 Expansion Slot
M.2 E-Key Slot (PCIe Gen 3) for Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Module
SATA3 connector (6Gb/s)
