It is a pc, it's gaben maintaining your arch. And it has officially supported replacement parts. And the thermals are great and power usage almost optimal. And it's a kickass console as well that you don't have to re-buy games for and can run emulators and still use all input as you like.

Can it play things like CSGO, Path of Exile, and Destiny 2? Does it have external hdmi + USB ports to plug in kb/mouse and monitor?!?!

I'm actually really intrigued!

CSGO - yes. Path of exile - probably, IDK. Destiny 2 - Yes, but you have to install windows. It has 1 usb-c port that you can plug in any pc dock. Other than that it’s a handheld PC with Linux pre-installed and custom UI to launch games with a controller. It can play most windows PC games.

Check protondb.com if you want to know compatibility for a particular game.
