This is for people who don’t have a nice and powerful desktop.

You can build a significantly more powerful desktop that is also upgradable for less than this. This price renders it absolutely useless and no one should buy it.

I don’t think you can if you take into account the form factor, noise and thermals.

I built my mini itx before this silliness and it was a good 20% more expensive on account of no space and specific components
