Who is this for, exactly?
It's small, but not actually portable like a gaming laptop.
It's got desktop-class performance, but the high cost and non-upgradability of a laptop.
NUCs make sense as small servers, but why do I need such a beefy GPU in a server?
I've used an Intel V8 NUC with a discreet AMD GPU for years to do all sorts of self hosting. It makes a fantastic Plex server as it can transcode really fast.
