Yes, if these details are right, it must be PWRficient PA6T-1682, IMHO.
The "Electra" eval board, just for reference:

Looks like a very good guess to me. Could it be that Hyperion has contracted with a hardware company to redesign the pa-semi board linked above to add a FPGA near the slots for what ever purpose and end up with the AmigaOne Power-X? Maybe ACK took his preliminary designs to Hyperion and talked them into backing production of them?
