I'm still building more AM4 machines than AM5 for clients, FWIW, even for folks that want relatively performant desktops. The price/performance just isn't better enough yet to do otherwise for most.

How do you feel about their GPU selection? I understand the 2U rack limits their choices, but what would you recommend as a good GPU that strikes a balance between performance and price?

My honest opinion is that until the software situation drastically changes, there is zero reason to get anything other than nvidia cards, because the cost of hardware will always be dwarfed by engineering hours in dev, and ROCm isn't there yet by a long shot.

I'm very much looking forward to this changing, for VRAM reasons in particular. But it's not going to happen any time soon.
