We walk you through a complete step-by-step small form factor (SFF) PC upgrade, including a detailed teardown to see inside the PC, removing the front fan for extra GPU clearance, and upgrading the Intel CPU and DDR3 RAM modules. After assembling this ultimate $280 budget gaming PC console, we boot into Bazzite OS to run a system info check, verify our PCIe link speeds, and stress test the GPU using FurMark for thermal and power stability. Finally, we jump into heavy 1080p native benchmarks and real-world gameplay tests for demanding modern titles like Forza Horizon 5, Red Dead Redemption 2, Cyberpunk 2077, and God of War Ragnarok to see if this affordable workstation hidden gem can deliver a smooth, playable 60 fps experience at High settings without screen stuttering.
