Asked ChatGPT about this and got some interesting details. Posting here in case it helps somebody else, personally i decided not to buy it.--My estimate of "worth" for this exact config:
  • Excellent buy: $399–$449
  • Fair / market-correct: $450–$499
  • Borderline: $500–$549
  • Overpriced: $550+
My single-number estimate: about $470.Why $470? Because versus the $429–$459 7735HS alternatives, this unit's extra RAM capacity/speed and premium ports deserve a bump, but not a massive one. I'd roughly credit:
  • + $25–$40 for going from common 24GB configs to 32GB fast LPDDR5,
  • + $20–$35 for Oculink + dual 2.5GbE + USB4 together,
  • then subtract for the fact that 7840HS machines are close enough in price to cap how much a 7735HS box can command.
A few claims in the listing are real, but overstated:
  • "Good die SSD" is not something I'd assign much resale value to without a named model and endurance specs.
  • Dual-fan cooling is nice, but only matters if it sustains clocks better in reviews.
  • USB4 is good, but "USB4" alone does not guarantee identical behavior across every device; the useful part here is that it supports the modern high-speed USB4 class and pairs with Oculink.
Bottom line: I would value it at roughly $470, with a buy target under $500 and a strong-buy target under $450. At $589.99, I'd pass unless you specifically need Oculink + dual 2.5GbE + 32GB LPDDR5 in this exact form factor.
Sounds like a Ferangi

I have been in the market to replace my aging 2018 Mac mini server for so long. This one was tempting but just going to hold out longer.

Maybe if a deal pops on a 32gb with 780m I'll bite. I'm also considering what the Steam machine comes out at if adding ram ever comes back to normal.

To be fair, he didn't claim 32 gigs of RAM is only worth 40 bucks. The claim was that the extra 8 gigs from 24 to 32 was worth that much. That is likely still not accurate, at least not when looking at retail RAM prices. However, you have to consider the value of an incremental upgrade, as well as diminishing returns.

Ultimately, I agree with the point. While I may not be able to buy 8 GB of RAM for 40 bucks, that's about what I do willing to pay for an extra 8 GB in a serviceable machine.

isn't PCIe 4.0 the standard these days for NVME? and 5.0 is upcoming standard?

for AM4, PCIe 4.0 is the standard. For AM5, PCIe 5.0 is the standard. For intel, depends on what the SSD slot is configured for, your motherboard specs should tell you what the max supported speeds are for every slot. If you don't care about speed, you can save some money with PCIe 4.0 SSD's in PCIe 5.0 slots, they'll work just fine.

weird, didn't even notice that because when I see DDR5 I automatically think PCIe 5.0 is paired with it. yeah that's an odd bottleneck there, maybe the speeds wouldn't be too bad, but that's always the issue with small form factors and laptops. gotta compromise on something.
