True. But it doesn't change the fact that it is still quite crap for a brand new gaming pc/console

Depends on the price point. Obviously, it's not going to be competitive with a $2K gaming rig. But if the price is right, I might get GabeCubes for my kiddos as their first "desktop" computers. They should run CachyOS flawlessly, since it's also Arch based, so it will work great as a desktop computer and a gaming rig.

My midrange computer from 3 years ago should outperform it, I would hope. If not, then it'll be priced out from what I'd consider buying.
