650W 80+ gold psu for those who care.

Nice space conscious form factor. I tend to avoid sff builds due to heat and lack of airflow despite having lots of fans to try and push/pull air through. I'd consider a sff build for lower/mid tier builds if the need arises.

Not a great deal. 2 gen old i9, old gen motherboard. You have to buy ram, GPU, SSD, os. You can get ram, CPU, mobo combos for $350 to $400. Case and PSU easily for another $200. Basically comes to the same price but newer components.

You can't get SFF motherboard/case/PSU for that price (that also support full size GPU).

If somebody can post links to the parts that would be a comparable current generation build, please feel free to reply!

It's a good price if you are in the market for such a thing. I don't quite see the point other than the cool factor.

This would be a hot deal at a 300-400 price point. Not at this price. If it does drop to that level, definitely in for one.

I agree. There were several ITX case (with PSU) deal on SD in the last few months. A current gen cpu like i5-13500 beats this 11th gen i9 in benchmark. There are also combo deals of CPU and motherboard regularly.

I don't see many SFF/mini-ITX CPU/mobo combo deals, please share.

NUC 12 Extreme i7 is also on sale -- Intel Dragon Canyon NUC 12 Extreme Mini Desktop RNUC12DCMI70001 (bhphotovideo.com)https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/pr...0_m_2.html
It has an upgradable socket with a desktop-class CPU if that's of interest.
