I'd call them personal chips. When I think of non-personal chips I think IBM POWER or Ampere Altra.

Why do you think of Altera as non-personal chips?

Not Altera, Ampere Altra. This: https://amperecomputing.com/processors/ampere-altra/

If the purchase page says to "contact sales" and doesn't list a price then it is not for consumers.

Click where to buy tab, then there is a list of distributors. Including ones which sell workstation versions with a configurator and pricing. https://store.avantek.co.uk/ampere-altra-64bit-arm-workstati...
