A motherboard is around $130
case $100
a cheap power supply around $60-$100
A total of $440-$480 if you are into DIY.
Up to you to decide if this is a good deal.
Edit: I forgot you need to add some fans on DIY, and yes, you can get a cheaper mini-case. Sorry, not an expert

I think you didn't factor in a cheap case. Having a 13th gen chip and a blower fan as its cooling sounds like a bad combo.
If you need extraordinary amounts of RAM or storage, no. A Mac with the equivalent of whatever the max RAM and storage this thing accepts is probably $10,000 vs maybe $1000 total to max this out.
Otherwise, yes.

I was almost into a Nuc 12, the one with an Intel Arc GPU built in, but then I gave up for some reason that I can't remember. I have the previous two generations with GPU built-in. Canyon? And the generation next to it. I will surely use it for home entertainment since they are pre-built, and I can't upgrade.
We have 3 NUCs (not extremes) in our family and they've all had no issues. One is connected to an External GPU.
