ETA Prime has once again put out a great video about budget SFF PC gaming. In this case, he used a pretty old HP Elite Desk unit which he picked up for a little over $100. He paired it with a used Nvidia RTX A2000 low profile GPU for $250. Adding a little ram and a small SSD, he had one hell of a nice little 1080P gaming machine. How good? How about Cyberpunk at 1080P High settings with DLSS on Quality with an average of 70 to 80FPS. That’s pretty damn good for a PC setup that isn’t much more expensive than an Xbox Series S. Check out his video below.

• "Pretty old"
• More powerful hardware (excl GPU) than my main rig until very recently
• Oof.

That A2000 really has opened some doors.

Hope that Nvidia/AMD will realise, from all those nice builds that have been highlighted recently, that there's a real need for a small, "cheap" and efficient GPU.

I'm holding out hope that the 4060/4070 class GPUs will be more power efficient. It would be nice to see sub 200 watt ITX cards that can match an RTX 3080 speed wise.
