FWIW, The M.2 and mini PCIe form factors are more cost effective. I added one to the WiFi+Bluetooth slot on a refurbished Dell desktop to perform object detection in my CCTV NVR.

For anyone else looking at these devices to use with frigate, I found that using the openvino mode on a <$200 intel mini pc was more than adequate for 5 cameras, and probably could have handled more. Glad I tried it out first before buying an accelerator.
