        @HenryLeeFN The Steam Deck and Ally has a better GPU than this mini PC to run more complex games like The First Descendant?

        I used PC Part Picker. I 'can' build a PC for 500 however tne motherboard I believe has bad VRMs and if I upgrade the mobo, I have to resort in worsening other part qualities. Build is Ryzen 5 5500 and AMD RX 6600.

        *Note the Ally is 520 GBP on Amazon ass of now and it should reach min requirements for TFD, having the Radeon 780M, similar to the GTX 1650 and an okay CPU

            I just don’t recommend the steam deck because you could get a good pc with $500

                    @HenryLeeFN it is, it runs on steamOS which is based on arch linux, the steam deck has a full desktop outside the big picture mode of steam and you can switch between it anytime

                        @HenryLeeFN note handheld pcs also have incredible price to performance, the rog ally has a better cpu and gpu than that mini pc, and the steam deck, while having a slightly worse cpu, only 4 cores (does not matter much for me), it has a better gpu than the mini pc

                        TLDR: both steam deck and rog ally are better than the mini pc for gaming

                          @HenryLeeFN you also might be confused du to the nintendo switch, which is very closed and limited yet the steam deck and rog ally allows you to do anything that a pc may do, including game dev (game builder garage does not count)

                                @HenryLeeFN Just like the mini PC, I can connect a usb-c dock and get a hdmi output and support form wired and 2.4ghz keyboards and mice

                                both also have bluetooth

                                  To disprove your point, the Steam Deck's GPU is more powerful than the mini pc

                                    @HenryLeeFN you can literally connect a mouse and keyboard to it either via bluetooth or wire, also i found this on google!

                                    and the graphics are great on deck, and even if they weren't it's still a pc
