Have you looked at Corsair's AI Workstation 300 Desktop PC? [1] It's 2000-2700 EURO depending on model, and taking VAT into consideration it's comparable to the 1700-2300 USD pretax prices.

No, but it falls into the platinum side of the equation. I can rent a cloud GPU for a few hours a month and come out ahead.

		I don't think there's any computer hardware that is now economical to buy and use a couple hours a month than to rent

		If the economics don't work out, perhaps this product is not for you and you're better off renting.

I generally agree with gp. Checkout with your link says "This item is currently on pre-order" btw. Retail mini-pcs are somehow harder to obtain than general purpose ones.

		probably because chip itself is shipped somewhere with "bigger margin" product mini pc with that much compute power is only enthusiast home lab mainly audience any enterprise or regular homelab wouldn't even need it hence why its hard to have it available

Seems about the same price as the Minisforum MS-S1 Max and Framework Desktop in that case.
