We can afford to buy massive PCs that will die of boredom as we play Minecraft. And if we can't we sure as hell can afford a loan.

    Lol, that's the reason I wouldn't LAN anymore. One, my computer is massive, and two, it's been in the same place for the last 10 years. I'm pretty sure it's bonded to it's support structure.

    Those PCs we had back then weren't necessarily smaller. 😅 I think we just cared less.

    That said, Mini-ITX builds are pretty nice and also in fashion right now. And when it comes to beloved old games anyone can just get an old laptop for the price of one Domino's Pizza off of ebay and start playing.

    Got one of those here. Some old 15€ junker with Intel HD 2000, but that thing will chug through anything from Unreal Tournament to Quake, Age of Empires, Warcraft, Forsaken, Total Annihilation, Dungeon Keeper, Command & Conquer, NFS…

    I would carry my PC around if all that plugging stuff in and out wasn‘t so annoying. In fact my PC needs a special power brick because it cannot fit a regular PSU inside. My next PC will be likely one with a Fractal Design Ridge case. It‘ll be roughly as large as a PS5 and fit a PSU inside. That alone will make it much less annoying to carry around.

    Although my GPD Win Mini is really great too for mobile PC gaming.
