If I’m going that way, then I’m building a custom PC for the purpose and I’ve built enough PCs at this point that I’m not keen on building more… Especially when looks are a nontrivial point.
Finding a good looking small case that I can mount on the wall (or shallow shelf) seems like a gigantic headache. Plus building in such a case is probably a nightmare since it’s mostly built for looks, not for build friendliness.
I’m considering the minisforum nucxi7, to give you an idea. That whole thing is smaller than a 1650 super, and it has an rtx 3060/3070 built in, with a clean, minimal look. Not busy, but not boring.
It’s just… Basically impossible to buy, and/or afford.
Lol, I would imagine it’s not that difficult to buy an office PC and throw a graphics card in it if finding an itx case and planning a build sounds like that much of a headache. At the point where you want a machine so specific and you are tired of building PCs why bother at all on atheistics? Just buy a console my friend no point in doing any sort of planning. If you want a machine that looks nice is small and runs multiple emulators then I’m pretty sure you are out of luck… Wiis be cheap and don’t look bad and you can mod them to run any sorta games just by getting homebrew on a thumb drive. Small form factor cases and the hobby of building computers are fun for some but it’s not everyones cup of tea.
