mini PC capable of running an AI
Lowest prices available to run an open source AI, not for research. It will be a general purpose machine that could be used as an AI business assistant, personal chat engine, eventual AGI conversational interface, etc. Ideally it should be expandable to handle GPU power at the best price and be capable of large-scale RAM. The minimum RAM expansion capability should be in the 16 Gb or higher range, up to 64 Gb.

Which of these can accommodate a GPU? Since GPUs are best suited for Ais, that is a key consideration.
What if I want to base a small PC on a GPU? That is a selling point.

NPB7 - what do you mean 'limited gpu expansion'?
it will be fine if we have more than one option, such as an 'entry level mini AI machine' and a more costly upscaled machine capable of using more costly GPUs. Would the NPB7 be able, for instance, to run a 13B open source AI without any upgrades? What's the price for that? What would you suggest to upgrade to in order to run a 70B very demanding AI?

Are there any mini PCs at lower cost that can match this kind of performance? (capable of doing a good job running a 13B AI?)

tell me more about the AI-running capability of the KAMRUI Mini PC Windows 11 Pro. That is a great price! What kind of processing power can I put in that thing?

Can the Kamrui be expanded with additional GPU processing? What is the max ram? What is the maximum open-source AI size that it's built in processing could reasonably handle?

I specifically want GPU expansion capability because of the intense need for processing power with larger AI models. Do you think the KAMRUI can do that? There are some complaints about heating issues, too, and 'limited gaming' indicates insufficient processing power to handle a robust AI.
