I'm looking for a SFF desktop with ryzen pro and vega 11 graphics card. I want to add a second graphics card so it has to have expandable PCI express slots. I believe the optiplex 5055 SFF meets my needs.
However, I am wondering if I should just build it myself. I can get the optiplex refurbished for around 500-600 USD. Including a 256G SSD and 16 Gig ram.
Question is, can I get the same price if I build myself or would it be more expensive? My instinct tells me the dell price will be hard to beat. I know I can easily go to parts picker and do this myself, but I've never built and SFF pc and not sure about my picks. Also, maybe you guys have a better suggestion on an SFF or smaller desktop with vega 11 card and a slot for another card.
