Just came here to say this. Hopefully they can work it out.

I'm on the same boat.
Since I also posted the comment on YT I'll just copy and paste it.
Some points are already in discussion here, but I still hope to make a contribution to the topic.
 
 
I'm sorry, but in my opinion this video is very one-sided and does not meet the usual LTT quality  - which is really weird to me, since Anthony usually has the best takes on tech.
 
To list the things that bother me:
- You compare the Mac Studio power draw to the most power hungry designs the PC market has today. There are several CPUs that are MUCH better in performance/watt while still delivering good or even great performance (5950X, 5800X3D, 5600X, 12700, 12400...) and the 3090, while not being much less efficient than, for example, a 3070, is still a very high power card.
- There is no mention of the higher prices that big chips have compared to small chiplet designs due to worse yields.
- There is also no mention of the lack of upgradability or flexibility that SoCs have to the classic PC design. You want more RAM or a better GPU later in life? Nope, you need a completely new SoC or even a completely new system.
- The same goes for the comparison of a closed system against the open PC standard. A more fitting comparison would've been a Laptop to the Mac Studio, since both are more or less closed systems that are built around a single(-ish) configuration.
- While I find it reasonable to not include Rosetta benchmarks in the comparison (since it's about the potential of the design), there should be mention that programs have to be adapted to have this increased performance, which would take some time after the release of a PC ARM CPU.
- Yes, CPUs and especially GPUs are getting more power hungry in the last few years. This is, however, mostly due to the companies producing them wanting to squeeze the last bit of performance out of them. They could easily reduce the power limit and still have nearly the same performance. The 5700X, for example, has about 93% of the performance of the 5800X while only using about 60% the energy. The same goes for GPUs, although right now, you'd have to powerlimit them yourself.
- A small one: Someone without knowledge of this field might get the impression that the ARM architecture is bound to be on a SoC and could not be integrated as, for example, a chiplet or single die on a classic CPU.
 
Don't get me wrong, the Apple chip is a marvelous piece of engineering and both using an SoC and the ARM architecture can have huge advantages, but the comparison should be fair.
 
P.S.: All the numbers are from the test and indices made by PC Games Hardware. Your numbers might vary.
P.P.S: English is not my main language, sorry for weird phrasing and errors.

Thanks for the advice! 
I find that it's a Matrox M9140 LP PCIe x16. Seems like it's used to output to four DVI monitors at once. It also proprietary cable that you can only get from Matrox for $90 a pop... Hoping eBay can help me out here.
 

I'm probably looking for a 16 series card
