What kind of GAMING can you do on a SUPER CHEAP Mini PC?! (GMKTec Nucbox G2 Review)

cross-posted from: hexbear.net/post/778594

Here’s a separate question:

I’m thinking about getting a “mini-PC” for myself, but only one that can play games really well, especially “modern-day” video games.

What’s a very powerful one that I can get?

I’m willing to spend up to $1,000 but maybe just mention anyone that’s great or the best out there, idk.

I posted elsewhere about my setup. I have a rig in one room and a mini PC set up as a “console” using HoloISO connected to a TV. I stream games to it.

If it’s your only rig I recommend what the other person said. Get a full PC or catch a gaming laptop on sale unless you have a very specific use case. You can play modern games on higher end ones but you’ll get more bang for your buck out of a PC. You can make your own Ship of Theseus and upgrade parts one at a time.

If there is not a special reason for mini PC, you can get a pretty decent desktop for $1000.

How decent? Able to play the latest video games easily on high and/or ultra settings?

Depends on the game but I got mine on a black friday sale (4 years ago) for $500 and I had no problems with Battlefield V, Death Stranding, Deathloop, Mount & Blade Bannerlord etc. Even without a discount $1000 is a nice budget for a decent PC (Not including the monitor since mini PCs also don’t come with a monitor). If you catch discounts you can even build a great one.
