    My 3 concerns are:
    1. Lifespan of a desktop vs Mini PC
    2. Unit and component costs
    3. Temperature risks

      Mini PCs are easier to maintain, but due to their form factor, it's pretty easy to drop them if you are not careful enough.
      Mini PCs are more affordable and easier to purchase compared to building a Desktop with a variety of components.
      While temperature is the biggest concern when it comes to Mini PCs, some come with enhanced cooling system to keep them under control.

    The Reason that should considering buy a Mini PC because is simplicity, space and efficiency.

    So the mini pc is decent for gaming but its much better with a portable Graphics card like RTX 4090

    They're really not better unless you have a size constraint. every other category a full size desktop will outclass any mini PC.

      It surely will.
      But Mini PCs are gradually catching up.

    The main problem with Mini PC is Heating issue .. Any full size desktop with large heat sink and good air flow easily make desktop PC more efficient even with the same spec mini PC .. More heating also mean more CPU throttling , more performance throttling and electronic component really do not last long ... If you are living in very Tiny apartment with very tiny room and space , mini PC might be worth it .. but even regular room regular size house , desktop PC and mini PC size different no longer matter at all .. moreover , mini PC are just around 30% less expensive than normal desktop nowadays .. unless you live in 6x6 feet room , just buy normal desktop , I already bought mini One and it is kinda money wasted ... Even if you upgrade memory CPU put out extra fans around mini PC ... Mini PC mean yeah Mini ! and how much air flow can it get through? thermal throttling is still very very common with heavy gaming .... you will start loving Mini PC for being Mini and end hating for the same reason

    Does anyone have a recommendation for a high-end gaming mini PC? I recently discovered that they exist & a mini PC would be perfect for me due to living in a small studio apartment.

      minisforum is no doubt the way to go, if you are lucky and find a deal for less than 1000 bucks you can get a gaming pc that plays literally everything at 1080p 60fps, i got mine a year ago and also traveled with it it literally is revolutionary

      definitely depends on your use case: if you are uncertain of where you'll be a year from now, or even months, or you have to move often, mini pc for gaming is perfect, minisforum is the brand i looked for and for now i can say i am definitely satisfied

    Desktop makes no sense if you are not using high power graphics card.
    But we still stick to laptop because:
    - laptop are easier to turn off . . . just close the laptop lid and it automatically closes
    - laptop have built-in ups . . . we don't have to worry about power interruption
    - the quality of built-in monitor in today's laptop are almost at par with desktop monitor, the size of monitor keeps getting bigger and bigger, the sound quality is getting better too.
    - it's all-in-one, how can you beat that?
    If within this year, manufacturers can make minipc use desktop processors, and allows us to plug in full sized graphics card, we would probably make that switch.

    1.)You can make a script about something without going over the top trying to make it seem better than something else. This script was very cringy for me. For someone who may not know a lot about pc/tech this video will have you buying a mini pc within a few days if you were debating between this and a tower (unwilling to do so sufficient research).
    2.)If space/size is important one can get a MATX/MITx. If cost and size is important then you can easily come up with or steal a configuration for a budget mini build for the same price/if not less than the price of one of these worth buying.
    3.)I would get one of these for travel if I was obsessed with looking at a monitor when away from home.
    4.)The integrated graphics life could be fine for a starter for a youngling.
