Several ARL boards have TB5 controllers, but laptop availability seems very low which I'm assuming is due to lack of CPU integration. Would be interesting to see what the performance profile looked like with TB5 on a standardized test system. It would also be interesting to see if there's any difference between USB4 and TB4 (though ARL has TB4 integrated into the CPU so that could inherently skew results) even though there very much shouldn't be.
