An "old" PC with an i7-4790T and 32 GB RAM.
I have also some Odroid devices based on 32bit-ARM.
But 32bit-ARM has the problem, that meanwhile many container images doesn't support this architecture anymore.
So, when your Pi is already 64bit-ARM it could be ok.
Otherwise the possible selection regarding available prepared container images may be smaller.
