N100 have better iGPU but CPU performance N95 is better, thanks to it's higher TDP

Not sure if you have one but mine PL1 is set to 15w even from factory. Not 6w like it was mentioned in your link.

N100 / N150 / N200 all good... Pi5 not really useful these days even for a micro server...

I have 2 x Pi4, 2 x Pi5, and 1 x N100, and I prefer N100 anytime to Pi5.

why pi not good/useful? because of ARM compatibility?
thankyou
