Recently acquired this for a mini-itx build, my first mini-itx build ever. My delivered cost was ~$360, and used some loyalty points through their site that cancelled the sales tax. Modest downgrade from Ryzen 7945HX with a few other downgrades on board but my idea here is to do this as cheaply as possible. Guessing the onboard IGPU is more than enough since I don't do much gaming and any family or friend I end up gifting to likely won't need bleeding edge frame rates as well.

Already have the RAM and SSD in my inventory, need to buy a case, a PSU, a fan or two, and a wifi card if i want. Personally would just plug into ethernet lan, but if gifted would likely buy and install the wifi card for them. Again, my goal on this is el cheapo... most bang for buck. Might be most optimistic I've been about a $ for value build since i rebuilt some retired workstations in 2017. My stepdad and a close friend still use two of those daily since then. Don't consider them power users or extreme gamers but both use multiple monitor setups with lots of apps running and my stepdad often uses his flight simulator software and is instrument rated/qualified. fwiw.
