I have a Steam Deck that is connected to my TV 90% of the time. I'd like to replace this with a PC that has maybe slightly higher specs than the Steam Deck. Are there any pre-built solutions that are really affordable?

The best value PC is the Steam Deck. Period.

I'd like to replace this with a PC that has maybe slightly higher specs than the Steam Deck.

Why?

Are there any pre-built solutions that are really affordable?

I mean pretty much all of the many different modern x86 handhelds deliver this.

Do you need it to be a handheld? Desktop PC? MiniPC?

Define "affordable"?

Why?

Because he wants to play higher resolution or fps? The deck is great but isn't a replacement for a gaming PC.
