I have a problem.

I love gaming, especially on one of thebest gaming PCs.

There’s nothing quite like the unbridled freedom PC gaming allows.

Right now, Geekoms Mini AI PC is over $300 off.

Of course, it won’t be a foolproof system.

But I’m not here to push PC gaming to new heights on 4K TVs.

This is why I recommend dropping the base resolution down from 4K to something like 1440p or even 1080p.

You’ll also want to play around with the graphics prefs in most games.

I ran into no issues in my gaming exploits.

What’s nice about PCs is you’re able to play with perspective.

Of course, in terms of everyday content streaming you won’t have any major concerns there.

There are some workarounds for this issue, namely CEC-compliant HDMI adapters.

Your Mini PC most likely won’t come equipped with specific HDR support and worse still, noDolby Atmoseither.

These are just some of the ways using a Mini PC might not be in your best interest.
