That’s only true if you think AI is the only reason to own a powerful and efficient server. Mine does plenty of traditional server stuff too.

I can do traditional server stuff on any old computer with a big hard disk and a decent amount of RAM. That's not worth $3500-$4000. When RAMpocalypse is over and we can buy a Strix Halo for under $2000 again, the math starts mathing. It becomes a pretty great desktop computer that also happens to run AI pretty well at a pretty good price.

An "AI" server can do traditional server stuff but a traditional server can't do AI stuff (inference)
