Are you sure about that? Mac mini price is $700. Let's take ryzen 5600x for comparison which is worse on almost each metric than m1: Processor: $300 Motherboard: $200 good 256 gb SSD: $100(doesn't seem to come close to apple's) 8 GB RAM: $40 Case/cooling: $100 Even in the configuration which is worse in each of the spec, you are hitting more than apple including apple tax. But yeah, I agree if you want an upgrade of RAM and SSD, it is much expensive than the part.

>Let's take ryzen 5600x for comparison which is worse on almost each metric than m1 On what metric? Single-thread performance seems to be comparable and in multi-threaded workloads Ryzen seems to be up to 50% faster. >Motherboard: $200 Huh? AM4 motherboards seems to be available for around $70 >Case/cooling: $100 Processor includes box cooler, so you are now counting it twice.
