Yes and no. Mostly no. You didn't say what you need.

as twelvebore pointed out you need to provide details like price range, what factors are you interested, your motivation to get a particualr hardware. I'm assuming you have the Pi and want more grunt. Have you tried overclocking it? one of the best thing I could advise in that department is to have a look at your sdcard. I've tried ones that are painfully slow then I've tried the one the Raspberry Pi foundation are selling for £5 and its like night and day.
Have you tried millhouses build, I heard thats fast.
truth is the next hardware up after the Pi is a Nuc then its the chromebox. everything else is just in the middleground. they wont give you the best bang for your buck.
