Those are two boards stacked together, right? Or am I confused about what sbc refers to?
Yeah, but the other person says this two boards computer counts, hence the confusion
@leadrunes
RPi with POE hat is still an SBC though.
You could make an argument that a board with the SoC on it and everything like RAM, storage and ports on separate daughter boards is an SBC, because only the Single Board there actually Computes. But the spirit of the name is something that's usable without accessories, it does not ban them for "impureness" of SBCsm.
Anyway, this here seems usable with only one board, but not intended to, so I'd rather call it a miniPC, not an SBC

Not that it's a very important term though, I doubt misusing it to the amount present here would cause any harm. I just like nitpicking.
@FierroGamer
It is two, but the top board is optional. So i think it’s still a sbc with an optional addition on?
Oh ok then, I don't really know much about SBC, I thought it was a literal term.
