This custom-built Radxa X4 mini gaming PC is smaller than a Coke can, runs Windows 11, and can even play Counter-Strike 2! Powered by an Intel N100 CPU, this single-board computer is a compact and affordable alternative to the Raspberry Pi 5. I designed and 3D-printed a custom gaming PC case, complete with cooling, a mini monitor, and RGB backlighting.
