The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

FuryGpu – Custom PCIe FPGA GPU
You might find the Sentinel 65X interesting in that the guy behind it basically said "the X16 is big and clunky and expensive, let's cut out that stuff".

It's not yet a deliverable product but watching the developers work on it has been an entertaining part of my doomscrolling diet.

FuryGpu – Custom PCIe FPGA GPU
There is an open-source DisplayPort transmitter [1] that apparently supports multiple 2.7 Gbps lanes (albeit using family-specific SERDES/differential transceiver blocks, but I doubt that's avoidable at these speeds). This isn't PCIe, but it's also surprisingly close to PCIe 1.0 (2.5 Gbps/lane, and IIRC they use the same 8b/10b code and scrambling algorithm).

Thunderbolt 4 display converter — 1x 4-lane HBR2/DSC in, 2x 4-lane HBR2 out…dumb hobby project, what do you think?
I have quite a bit of experience working with DisplayPort on both FPGAs and ASICs, and I can tell you this: creating a very basic DisplayPort RX or TX in Verilog is an advanced project. There is some IP (see here), but that doesn't come close to covering your needs.

FPGA for graphics processing?
It depends on what kind of processing but there's some basic hdmi and display port input and decoding examples https://github.com/hamsternz/FPGA_DisplayPort
What are some alternatives?
When comparing Sentinel-65X and FPGA_DisplayPort you can also consider the following projects:
