So is DASH a superset of BMC/IPMI management, or a replacement? Or is this going to be the desktop equivalent to IPMI/remote KVM?
And is the client (the management console) really Windows-only? What about the server side (the system running the DASH hardware)? Is it OS-agnostic like IPMI, or Windows-only?
IPMI is deprecated, while DASH is an active standard. BMC / IPMI are server terminologies. vPro AMT and DASH are the equivalent out-of-band management systems for non-server systems that do not have a separate BMC.
You should take a look at the AMD DASH Tools : https://developer.amd.com/tools-for-dmtf-dash/ : linked in the article. The tools are not for Windows alone. It is a open standard and anyone can develop something like the management console for their OS (most ones are probably already supported).
System running DASH hardware can run any OS. As mentioned in the article, you can just access the browser-based management page at http://IP:623 even when the OS is not booted up.

The 4500u model sounds like a great deal to a power efficient compact light workloads station. And you can remote manage.DanaGoyette - Wednesday, December 16, 2020 - link
