This Is The Smallest Linux Gaming PC! It's Fast & Fits In The Palm Of Your Hand - Bazzite Linux

This is a bad purchase and a poor use-case.
Sorry but can you explain why you think that?
Seriously, this thing looks awesome.
EDIT: I waited a few weeks to make sure I still wanted one, so that this couldn't be considered an impulse purchase. It is, in fact, awesome. More powerful than a PS4 Pro in such a small, light, quiet package. I'm definitely using this as my fighting game machine when I travel and need to set up a casuals station. Not only is it significantly more performant than a Steam Deck, it ought to be less cumbersome to set up than a Steam Deck and dock.
The form factor is why this thing is cool though. I know a handful of tournament organizers who love how much better these things have gotten. (Also, this is using about a tenth of the energy that your ATX build will likely use.)
I have a mini-PC from Minisforum (not this one) dedicated as a media computer in my living room. It can fit nicely inside the TV bench, which a regular sized computer wouldn't do. I like that I can play games like Horizon: Zero Dawn on it without any issue. I love it, and I gave about 800 USD for it.
I am planning getting a high-end rig for my office later (next year maybe?), and then I of course will not consider a mini-PC.
I found ITX did, it did restrict my options however with my Ryzen 5 and RX6650 XT I can play everything at full detail and high resolutions. Linux is awesome with AMD hardware.
Why ATX when you can go MiniITX?
I do have an Ryzen 7 5700G in my DeskMini A300. But had to cut a hole in the case for the cooler.
That's probably true. However, I'm sure there are people out there who have very limited space and do not need that extra power for the games ey play.
Given the world these last few years, there have been many people who have been forced to downsize and get or become room mates or live in an RV. This doesn't necessarily mean a person can't enjoy a little downtime. The primary point is that every inch counts. Or so, she says.
Yup, it’s bottom of the barrel content. He also constantly engagement baits by asking people to comment if they want to see X or Y running on the machines he features, and he never actually does whatever he’s saying. It’s just a content farm.
I mean, if you need a screen and controller as well a steam deck seems smaller.

I watch a fair bit of this YT Channel. He plays with / evaluates a lot of hardware that I'd otherwise never see or even know existed. I also like that he evaluates using both Windows and Linux since I'm interested in both and from his perspective it widens his audience.
