What do you recommend for desktops that aren't the big ass tower?
Well I'd like better cooling than a laptop, which should make it last longer. But a full size tower just doesn't seem necessary anymore.
Say for modest/patient gaming.
Well personally for me not a handheld because I still want a computer for office and things like that (and not cheap one because the more RAM the better). I've seen people fiddle with their steam deck but I don't want to bother with that.
So mini itx then?
I meant fiddle to get it to work as a desktop.
I think user asked for a small factor PC, just like intel nuc. IMO intel nuc is a perfect PC for a work desktop. They can even mount on the back of the monitor - excellent feature. Not sure if any other brand has such feature.
Look at minisforum and beelink.
