I'm going to forego the LP Delta board and go with a Celeron mini PC that's a bit more powerful. That takes me back to.. the Larkbox. Yes, it's back to where I started But I decided I would take more raw performance in a tiny PC over ease of convenience with extra I/O.

The Larkbox's Celeron J4105 > N4120, has 2GB more RAM and runs it in dual channel. And we know how much that dual channel matters with iGPU performance.

Gamescope is also a godsend for low-spec PCs like these. I can run games at very low resolutions where they would otherwise struggle in HD resolutions with the Intel iGPU. But there's still a performance hit here with upscaling low-resolution images as it tends to drop more frames when upscaling to 1080p vs. 720p. So the 720p non-touch screen has the advantage here.

Therefore, still using the smaller 5" screen and the mini case design that can fit in your pocket. Designing the battery enclosure should be interesting. It would basically be a power bank with dimensions that fit in with the PC case.
