How many credits does this get you in any cloud or via openai/anthropic api credits? For ~$1700 I can accomplish way more without hardware locally. Don't get me

How many credits does this get you in any cloud or via openai/anthropic api credits? For ~$1700 I can accomplish way more without hardware locally. Don't get me wrong I enjoy tinkering and building projects like this - but it doesn't make financial sense here to me. Unless of course you live 100% off-grid and have Stallman level privacy concerns. Of course I do want my own local GPU compute setup, but the juice just isn't worth the squeeze.
