IIGS sleeper build for around $1500
I recently got my hands on a broken IIgs with accessories and am looking to gut it and make it an awesome sleeper gaming pc. It would be my first build, and I am quite excited. Other subreddits kinda ignored me, so I’m looking here! If you have other creative ideas to use the other accessories (- monitor) for, I would be happy to see them. I will try to get back to every reply. Also considering retrobrighting, even though this is the wrong sub to ask about it. Thanks!
- New build or upgrade?
completely new
- Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links)
guess just the case
- PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games)
For gaming. I generally play less intensive games like KSP, Minecraft, hk, etc , but that is probably only because of my current hardware restrictions. I would like to play more graphically intense games.
- Purchase country? Near Micro Center? (If not US, list local vendors)
US. I have a Micro Center close to family so count that
- Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate)
I’m fine with a single monitor. I would like it to be 1440p 120 hz. OLED would be really nice but I don’t know if that’s possible. I have no gauge on size
- Budget range? (Include tax considerations)
~$1200-$1500
- WiFi or wired connection?
Definitley WiFi
- Size/noise constraints?
Parts should snugly fit in the Apple IIGS case
- Color/lighting preferences?
The parts would be internal, so not really, but white is nice
- Any other specific needs?
minimal tampering with the case, though I am okay with cutting of the current I/O ports fir the new one
