Yet the Radxa Rock 4d[1] has 4Gb and is selling for 69 dollars.

Four of those would be $280 though, so this doesn't seem hilariously out of scale with that.

But ram prices don't scale linearly. The 4Gb variant of RPi5 is $130.

Radxa does have a 16Gb board[1] on pre-order, coming in at $329. Though the Dragon Q8B appears to be quite a bit more capable.

I don't think I have any beef with what you're pointing out - I was only saying that I don't think the Radxa products' pricing are demonstrating anything too shocking about the Rpi products' pricing.

I personally would probably choose one of those over a Rpi (but would probably still rather buy more off-lease Elitedesk G6 Minis, which is what I use for 'lil computer' projects)

I agree it's not too shocking, I think prices have increased everywhere including competitors. > off-lease Elitedesk G6 Minis Those are great if you can surface them! I've also been enjoying the N100 mini-ITX boards from ASROCK[1] and ASUS. Great choice if you already have a power supply and some RAM stockpiled. The ASUS one uses SODIMM. They use very little power. [1]: https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/N100DC-ITX/index.asp
