Try an AMD card, much better chances because open drivers. There definitely have been people who got dedicated GPUs to run on ARM boards via the not even a handful of pcie lanes meant for m.2 storage.
I wouldn't be too sure about ARM because Qualcomm definitely is eyeing alternatives and other licensors might not exactly mind not being reliant on litigious bastards. That alternative is RISC-V. Most ARM licensors are making chips for products where apps don't really care about the architecture, that is, Android.
To actually make a dent in the completely entrenched x86 market we'd need probably chips with dual insn decoders. I certainly wouldn't put that past AMD they don't like being fused to Intel at the hip.
