So I've been looking at upgrading my PC and it looks like I can get a better "micro" pc than my current (ancient) desktop for significantly less money than a full blown gaming rig. An example of such a rig is this.

I don't have high gaming requirements - I play mostly old games, I think the newest games I play are from 5+ years ago.

What reasons are there for not buying one of these (over a comparable "proper" desktop)?

A lot of those mini PCs don't really have enough graphics power, even for older games. I have one and unless it's something really low powered like Stardew or something, the experience is not great.

The Deck is designed for gaming, and it can double as a desktop PC.
