Without a dedicated GPU, this only looks like a gaming PC and is a bit high for the parts.
Yeah, this is for someone who wants to look like a gamer. I got a GMKtec k8+ for about this with a better CPU, igpu, double the storage, 4 times the RAM that is ddr5. And it has an oculink port to connect a full desktop GPU. But it doesn't have RGB, so there is that (which is a plus for me)

Link? Tyia.
Also how do you feel about these mini PCs? Reliable? No heat issues? Etc etc
I've looked for hours for a cheap setup like this that's pre-built then spent more hours trying to do the same setup part for part. Yes I did add some name brand subs but even then and not counting the labor involved, the parts alone were almost the same or more than the asking prebuilt price. And that's not including the Win11 OS. Is it the a true gaming setup? Not really. It'll do for the tame Team Fortress, Roblox and Minecraft teen of mine but I'm sure I'll need to add a dedicated GPU in the future. He can save up for that...

I got mine from AliExpress during their sale ($100 off). But here is the Amazon link. https://a.co/d/eAJY3tj
I just got into mini PCs a while ago but overall they are great! Think of them as laptops without screens or keyboards. I don't see much of a downside unless you want to be able to upgrade things other than RAM or storage. With oculink, you can get an egpu with pretty minimal loss compared to a full desktop.
This is far from a gaming pc. It would require a decent dedicated GPU to fall into that category. Interesting on this model they don't even mention the psu, so hard to know how powerful of a GPU you could even install. It would make a decent home pc, keeping in mind that this is a low end CPU that is four generations old.
