Mac Mini in Desktops ·
Just got back from a quick dive, $1067 regarding how they put that config together... Honestly, it might be a struggle to run everything I have in mind... It’s weird because those aren't even super heavy games, and I don't plan on cranking the settings to max anyway. I just want to be able to jump in for a quick match here and there.

$1000 isn't really the issue; the real headache is that I don't have any room in my apartment for a massive tower (at least, according to my wife 😁). Is it possible to cram this setup into a smaller case since the PC is going to be sitting right in the living room?

I'm thinking about hooking this Mac Mini up to my 55-inch TV, but I'm worried it might look a bit weird or out of place. You guys have any better ideas for a setup?

Hey everyone,

Since most of you guys definitely know way more about this stuff than I do, I wanted to see if a mini PC in the $300 range could actually handle some gaming. To be more specific, I’m just looking to play League of Legends and Dota 2—nothing too crazy, just those two.

I stumbled upon this deal:
MINISFORUM Windows 10 Pro Mini PC,
Intel Core i5-5257U Dual-Core Processor,
8 GB DDR3L
256GB SATA SSD
Supports 4K HD@60Hz/HDMI VGA Port/Dual WiFi/Gigabit Ethernet/BT4.2
Price is $320

Any advice would be awesome, thanks! 😉

... this is what having a solid goalie actually looks like...
Hey there! =)

So, about six weeks ago, I had a little mishap and ended up with this pretty large (but shallow) scrape on the left side of my face. The scab actually fell off perfectly fine after about five days, and the skin looked totally normal at first. But now, almost a month and a half later, the area where the wound was is getting redder by the day, and honestly, it’s starting to look pretty gnarly...

Should I go see a doctor? I'm really stumped because everything seemed completely fine for the first month...

Also, does anyone know if there's a way to get my skin tone back to normal?

Thanks! Best,

... alright, just tell me one more thing—can the 6750 actually handle newer titles? Like the new Need for Speed or Battlefield 3?

mellowraven8 said:I'm down. Just thinking about that old 560Ti today. Man, those cards really held their own back in the day! If you can stretch it just a little bit more, that would be awesome. If not, maybe we could just go with something else? 6850

The performance levels on these cards are all over the place.Honestly, I think it’s about time we admit the 6850 is the better deal.

Regarding that power supply of yours—honestly, it’s not great. It might be holding its own for now, but don't count on it lasting much longer. 🙂

If you go with the 6850, you're looking at about 130 W.
Wait, you didn't mention which processor you're running... is it like a 90 W one?
Still got about 50W to spare.

You really need a solid power supply rated for at least 400W, something like an EVGA or Corsair. Thinking about picking up an XFX 450? $136

It’s always a smart move to have some extra headroom on your power supply—having that extra wattage definitely gives you more peace of mind.

If you're trying to stick strictly to a budget, you could save a few bucks and shave off a couple dozen watts in power consumption by looking at this instead. Thinking about running a 550Ti paired with a 6770. What do you guys think? Just a heads-up, using that current power supply is totally on you if anything goes sideways. Use it at your own risk!

Pick whatever you like—you'll have plenty of fun playing around with it! 🙂

Check out this 2MB box on Amazon—looks like exactly what I need for my setup!
Here's the CPU.

Thanks a ton, you were a huge help! =)

The only real bottleneck you might run into is your power supply. What brand and model is it? You can usually find the info on the sticker or the receipt.

I also tracked down two cards that look decent:

Oh, and yeah, you can toss just about any PCI-E graphics card in there.

Hey there,

... I picked up a PC with integrated graphics about a month ago, and I'm wondering if I can upgrade it?

... motherboard: ASUS P5G41T-M LX3

... looking to grab a card for around $333 (any suggestions in that range?)

... also, my power supply is 400W... do you think that'll be enough juice?

Maybe later on I'll run a little thing for $1.75 just focusing on individual player points..

Phoenix vs New Jersey under 😕
