Hey all,

I found an HP EliteDesk 705 G4 Mini with a Ryzen 3 2200G for a really good price in my country and I am thinking about using it for gaming ( esports games ) and everyday use. I’m not concerned about upgrading in the future. Are there any reliability or performance issues with it compared to a normal tower PC?

I appreciate any feedback!

I am not sure if this question is serious... ?!

The computer you refer to is a business machine and as such just enough to do basic office work. It is clearly not a Gaming machine. And being a "Mini" you will have a hard time upgrading it. The CPU is an entry level CPU of a few years back, so it is outdated and as an entry model not great for gaming. There is no dedicated GPU, which you need for gaming, nor is there any space to put one. And even if you could the power-suppy will not be able to run it. I could go on.. .

Just buy some proper gaming PC and forget about the HP Mini.
