From what I have researched, I personally split it it into three categories.
GO CHEAP. If you don't game and just want something capable of not doing much... you know... what 99% of the worlds needs would be met with a N97. They go for about $125ish. I think this is the perfect HTPC (Home Theater Personal Computer)
Ryzen 7 OR 9... 8 thousand series and this close to one of the better deals. What makes the 8 thousand series so special is it has a 780m integrated within the CPU which is capable of playing new games at low to mid settings.
You by a mini PC with the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. This Chip has the next gen GPU within it... it is labeled 890m and it is about 33% faster then the 780m but don't fool yourself, you can only play the newest games on low to mid settings.
I figure if you really wanted a desktop, then that is what you will buy. These mini pc's are based on LAPTOP specs. So it uses a laptop GPU and a laptop CPU. I will be buying one but not yet.... and I am pretty sure I will be buying the AI9 HX 370... found refurbished barebones for about $500ish.
Is this $550 after coupon? BUT I PREFER THE F5A NO THE F3A.

my FAVORITE mini pc as of today...

But this deal is GOOD and is inline with the more expensive and cheaper mini pc's. I just like the best... even though it may only be the best until the next best shows up.
I personally will be looking to buy 64GB of RAM or more and 4TB hard drive. (add another $400 to any purchase). I will ONLY buy Samsung 990 pro or WD black. And I don't care which RAM. I just want my hard drive to be bulletproof.
Last thing I will say is my laptops are a i7 and i5 3rd gen and I just got Microsoft to give me one more year of updates for free. So I see myself buying new laptop in a year and it is hard to justify any other PC system that I may buy.

I'm guessing it's better to have the laptop-style power brick. If it fails, you just swap it out. With an internal PSU, when it's toast, you're toast.
