Mini PCs Are Booming : Worth Replacing Your Desktop?

[Urvashi]

Tiny PCs like Intel NUCs and Mac Minis pack serious power now. Are they enough for work or gaming?

Mini PCs are a compact, energy-efficient alternative to traditional desktops, ideal for basic tasks, saving space, and reducing power consumption. They’re affordable but may lack upgradeability and struggle with high-performance tasks like gaming or video editing.

I don't think so as a replacement, but as a second option, yes. I find it quite useful and above all very convenient that it has everything in one. It is very small, perfect to take on a trip if you are a person who travels a lot. I like them. I don't use them as a replacement for a PC because it has hardware limitations, but I do have them as a complement. I have 3 miniPCs, I love them, I see a great future for them.
