I was using a Pi 400 for my programming PC, basically testing out if I can sell my gaming PC after I got my steam deck. It was perfectly capable for that task, and I’d say I would be happy to use it as my primary desktop PC.

Just sold my Pi 400 after the announcement of the Pi 5, deciding the Pi 5 will be my primary desktop PC. (Also ordered a Pi 4 because I have some other plans for it, but don’t want it built into a keyboard).

Falling back onto my Pi 3 I never really used before — it’s surprisingly capable. Not as a general desktop but gets my programming done fine. Its bottleneck seems to be I/O and limited RAM.

Thanks for the info! What system / DE do you intend on using? What type of work do you do on your computer?

I was thinking about getting a wireless keyboard+mice and attach RPi at the back of my monitor to have a clean and very low-power setup.
