Seriously. You can’t even get loose risc-v chips even from mouser and especially not ebay or alibaba. I’m not counting those bullshit low pin coint pin microcontrollers, I want an actual microprocessor with a parallel bus and peripherals so I can do personal computing stuff with it. And is at least more powerful than a Pentium 1.
With arm cpus you can at least get the bottom of the barrel microprocessors no one else wants. A53 1.4ghz chips are actually reasonably priced but beyond that it’s not. Arm is currently a better contender for a “build your own computer” type thing.
Where are you getting RISC from?
