So I’ve been looking at upgrading my PC and it looks like I can get a better “micro” pc than my current (ancient) desktop for significantly less money than a full blown gaming rig. An example of such a rig is this.
I don’t have high gaming requirements - I play mostly old games, I think the newest games I play are from 5+ years ago.
What reasons are there for not buying one of these (over a comparable “proper” desktop)?
Can we persuade you towards a Steamdeck?
Main thing with those is a lack of extensibility and support from Chinese manufacturers.
At worse you buy one of those, find its limits and then upgrade to something else and use it for homelabing. I have some of them for that purpose.
