CoreforgeFinally tried to hook up an AM4 chipset to a raspberry pi (someone suggested this on the pi-pci repository a few years ago), and it turns out it mostly just works.
only SATA and the PCIe switch properly work so far though, the ethernet driver fails to initialize, and USB doesn't detect any devices (on the ports where it should)

@coreforge ok that's super cool. i had no idea the chipset would just be exposed as a pci express device
Magnesium@jiub @coreforge There are PCIe cards with AMD chipsets available.
@realMagnesium12 @coreforge oh that's fantastic, could be an interesting way to upgrade connectivity on an old system
@realMagnesium12 I know, but that's less fun

Rachel@coreforge this is some form of witchcraft certainly
ebx@coreforge a) how did you find gur right wires on gur socket???
b) does using loose wires for PCIe make gur signal integrity so bad its unusable
c) this is really cool
d) does this need custom drivers and if so can i read gur code somewhere????
