They're between ThreadRipper and ThreadRipper Pro, in raw memory bandwidth and performance.
For example: They have double(or more) the memory bandwidth of any other mobile or desktop part (excepting ThreadRipper Pro).
128GB of 256-bit LPDDR5X-8000 (256GB/s), is closer to a dGPU's GDDR5 VRAM bandwidth. Well-more than any consumer desktop platform.

For GPGPU (and gaming), you're basically getting RX 9060-ish 'grunt' with 96GB of not-GDDR5 VRAM. -attached to an SoC performing similarly to a 7950X, and operating more-efficiently than even a 9950X.
You lose most-all upgradability vs. a DIY workstation but, there's at least 2x USB4 for eGPU and/or External Expansion. Plus, this is far more portable and more thermal/power efficient than a similarly-performing desktop build.
Edit: Oh, and keep in mind: 128GB of DDR5 memory, right now, may-well be over half the price of this unit. -for the RAM alone
If you need 128GB RAM for whatever reason, and you need to upgrade already-
this probably looks like a downright "Slickdeal"

These are expensive upfront, but the electricity costs should be way cheaper and this chip seems to be good/ish for some AI stuff.
I have the power!

This Corsair is Windows 11 Home vs. Pro on the HP but I don't plan to use Windows long term on the device. It's still worth saving the $1100 to upgrade your own O/S in any case...
Will it be good for medium level gaming?

It displays as 32 cores, you can dynamically adjust the RAM to be anywhere from 96Gb CPU and 32Gb GPU, to 32Gb CPU and 96Gb GPU which is what I do as I use it for an AI server, but by default it's set to an even 64/64 split. It comes with Windows pre-installed, minimal bloatware (at least with the Nimo PC) and I had no issues making it into an AI workstation. It can easily run gpt-oss:120b at fair speed, with other models such as gpt-oss:20b running nearly as quickly as my previous RTX 3070 24Gb AI server did. I expect it also absolutely rips at gaming considering how well AMD has been doing, along with the incredible RAM flexibility; setting 64Gb to each CPU and GPU should be plenty to load even the most resource-intensive games. If it's handling AI nearly at the level of the RTX 3070, I actually expect it likely meets or exceeds that card in gaming performance; it's newer silicon, and while AI is a tough one to push, it's also a different ballgame from running games.
One notable difference I see is this PC, while nearly 1:1 to the Nimo PC's design, looks like it may have a bit more airflow on the front. It's fairly small for a PC, stays fairly cool on my model (so this one should be even cooler I'd imagine), and has a "turbo" button under the power button which increases the max wattage (but doesn't seem to affect idle wattage, as I'd expect).
Just to compare with the listed stats for this workstation, the one I got was $1,999 with a $160 discount for a total of $1,839, but it now currently goes for $2,199.99, making this Corsair rebrand a solid deal right now. Mine was specced out with a Ryzen AI 395 Max+, 128Gb LPDDR5 8000MHz, a 2Tb NVMe, and lists its turbo mode goes up to 120 watts. This PC matches that, but where it only has a 1Tb NVMe, 350W power supply may provide more performance if it runs higher than 120W (some PSUs are over-specced to provide headway and power-efficiency).
That about sums up my thoughts given I own the pre-white-labeled model.
Cheers!
