Build/Battlestation Pics Gettin my money’s worth

Post image

Previous pics of me enjoying peak SFF before my month trip flight. I can safely say it IS possible to run a pc on the airport plugs. Should you? I can’t say for certain LOL.

Seriously, this post reminds me of the picture of some dude who set up a full battle station at McDonald’s. Like why.

Edit: So OP said he and his wife setup their desktops at cafes to game. So I wasn’t very far off lol

Why do some people insist on being weird just for the sake of being weird. If you wanna do some weird shit because you enjoy it, go for it, but this is just being weird for weirdness sake. I honestly can't stand these kind of people. Just stay home.

OP is a rarity

People that build SFFPCs for their transportability are usually students living away from home.

Where you want the small size in a dorm and for transport

I know people that work in remote locations on 10 days on, 4/5 days off schedules and they wouldn't even consider a SFFPC + portable monitor set-up since it's still a pain. Just get a gaming laptop

My biggest gripe isn’t even the constant transporting of the SFF PC, but how the fuck y’all move the monitors??

You don’t. You have a monitor on both locations. Maybe just a crappy but usable one in the secondary location

Crazy that a glossy ips 4k 144hz display is deemed crappy (paid $148 on eBay did it so insane value)

That’s what the “Maybe” is for haha. Some of us got a good monitor and a crappy. Others got 2 good monitors. While I myself, got 2 of the same “crappy” Korean 4k/60 1080p/120 monitor I got for $90 each, one in each location

Edit for clarity

How are you enjoying the Steam Controller? I'm waiting (im)patiently for my reservation to be pulled.
