But now, thanks to Alibaba’s constant stream of weird oddity computer parts, we can fit a full gaming PC, complete with a desktop GPU, 600W power supply, and ITX motherboard, in a case that’s only slightly larger than a laptop that’s too big to be useful, and only slightly heavier than what would cause an average person to slip a disc.
