I just wish they'd gone a little more aggressive for their performance goals.

Same. They have their CPU and GPU power limited to keep the temps (subsequent fan noise) down. If they put in a more powerful PSU in and let the fans ramp up it'd do significantly better in benchmarks

I have a worse desktop (overclocked R5 2600 and RX 7600) and it generally performs fine. Some CPU-heavy settings have to be turned down in some games, but it manages medium-high at native 1080p for everything I've tried. White room benchmarks aren't everything.
