thank you. A very useful contribution that neatly answers the question of why anyone would go through so much trouble. I would have guessed the difference in price was "only" a few hundred, and obviously would have been quite wrong! I never would have guessed 3.5 times!

In a way this isn’t a “similarly spaced Mac” though - it’s using Xeon CPUs, ECC RAM, server motherboard with 6 memory channels, professional GPU, etc.

The problem is if you want a Mac tower desktop they don’t offer anything with consumer components.
