The timing actually bit me in the ass, as I got my SD only a few months before building a new 4k 120hz rig and TV update.
It gets its use more casual, quick gaming. When it is 930 PM I don't want to take over my living room to game for an hour before I have to go to bed. So I pop on Shovel Knight Dig of whatever and dick around. Very rarely now is it my main gaming machine.
BUT
I use it in desktop mode for one of my two living room TVs. Its so FUCKING awesome having a full PC I can charge and keep alive with just a high powered USB C cable. Its an amazing media PC because of its size and doomed profile.
