Notes

A 2.65 L Strix Halo box with 128 GB, dual 2.5 GbE and one front USB4 port. The Austrian offers are the barebone (no SSD, no OS) at about 5.2k EUR, far above the 3k to 4k EUR of rival 128 GB boxes. No independent review or power or noise test found.

Ethernet: an earlier candidate note and the search framing suggested 10 GbE; Zotac lists dual 2.5GbE (the 10 in the spec is the 10 Gbps USB 3.2 port). The Windows model (1 TB SSD) and the barebone (3 M.2 slots, no SSD) are two SKUs; Geizhals AT offers only the barebone. Candidate research quoted Danish and Finnish prices of about 6,300 and 6,628 EUR; Austrian offers are lower (5,242.70 to 5,769 EUR). Zotac spec pages returned HTTP 403 on fetch, so specs come from search-result excerpts of Zotac's pages. Four speed runs from other Strix Halo boxes were dropped; none was measured on this box. GPU memory follows AMD's Variable Graphics Memory rule for every box with this chip (75% of RAM: 48 GB on 64 GB, 96 GB on 128 GB); tuned Linux figures are in the GPU memory note. FP16 TFLOPS is AMD's figure for the chip.
