SiFive Unmatched

I just watched the BSDCan talk on FreeBSD on RISC V; the Unmatched supposedly fully works and I noticed that mouser is offering it for a very competitive price.

I'm wondering though, whether this is "Rev B" and if that works just as well as the "first batch"? Anyone got any ideas?
Anyone know where to find it from a vendor in Europe?

Here's the talk if anyone's interested:

Datasheet link goes to sifive.com site, where you can read "The updated HiFive Unmatched Rev. B boards are available on the Mouser website" with link back to Mouser, so I would guess that this would be revision B.

What is the real advantage using RISC-V over ARM Holdings Inc.? This seems like a fracturing arch.

Not at the whim of whatever ARM Holdings wants to charge you for using their ISA. It's unfortunate RISC-V is caught up in the US - China trade war.
 
The 64 trillion dollar question is:

Does FreeBSD actually support x8 lanes of PCIe and x4 Lanes for NVMe??
