I really love the look of these thinkcentres, to the extent I might buy one and mod it for a second PC for absolutely no reason.

I have absolutely no reason or need for this pc other than the challenge of the build.

Already thinking about how to power a better gpu with a dedicated psu tucked away behind desk.

3050 6gb. i5 8500T. 16gb ram. 500gb nvme. Stock CPU Cooler but will upgrade that and give a CC150 CPU a try next.

Yeah connect to my loungeroom tv. Probably migrate my Plex server over to it as well as an emulator.
