Looks almost like a bootleg version of a Xbox Series X.

The kit alone would be like 30k I am guessing...

The barebone kit is now available via retail channel as well. My local hardware guy has informed me that AMD is pushing these kits to smaller retailers across India as well as the globe. They heavily highlight the 8C part and targeting the entry-level home/office PC segment.

Anyone called them for the price?

I can talk with my guy on the weekend and get a rough idea.

That would be great. Thanks

This is a win win for retailers as it would help them sell off the low end gpu they are forced to buy from distributors who bundle them with high end gpu cards.

but 6 -7 years down the line it would be excellent Vm based pfsense and vm baremetal

Combo pricing is bad. We need to find out what's the price of the standalone .

MD Computers offers the 16 GB kit with a Radeon RX 550 2 GB card for ₹46800, while Starcomp.in lists the same combo for ₹45500. According to my hardware guy, the 16 GB kit alone should be around ₹40000.

Pricing doesn't look good imo.

Don't know why this thread popped up on my TL, prices are 10k lower than earlier. Around 35k now.

The rumored AMD 4800S Desktop Kit allegedly sports a number of improvements over the 4700S one, including the M.2 slots.

excellent only if it was priced lower

4700s had the x16 slot configured as PCIE 2.0 x4
Is the 4800s going to improve that?
If they do then decent midrange cards could make a very nice build

no it seems,at least as per the leaked specification still x4 but dont know which gen,if its gen 3 them mid range cards can comfortable run on x4 gen 3. I feel the price is too high, a 8 core zen 2 based cpu and mobo and 16 gigs of ram comes out cheaper with more features. unless they price this at below 25k imo this is a nogo
