Hello, everybody! I want to have a little mini-PC for gaming that operates like a console. I don’t want to have a big, clunky case in the back or front of the TV. Furthermore, I don’t play many AAA titles from recent years, so the hardware doesn’t need to be high-end. It would be nice if I could run Scarlet Nexus, Nier: Automata, and Horizon Zero Dawn at a stable 60 FPS. The graphics don’t need to be extreme; I just want to enjoy the game.

Also recommend some great distro’s for gaming.

    Not sure about Mini-PCs, but Nobara is a great distro for gaming. It has everything set up and great defaults for gaming, I’ve been using it for the past ~2 months.

        No, but that’s more of a distro for a console-like experience, it’s not intended to be used on desktop PCs.

          Yes it is. It’s a distro specifically designed for gaming. So if you’re just gaming and nothing else, that’s probably the best one.
