why not an identical monitor as the current one. so the setup looks symmetrical

Hmm... Prices for the Ryzen CPU seem actually okay. (similar to the USA)
Ryzen 3200G only costs 113USD, and is probably better than the 8400.
 
Anyway, the build is good and it will be good for a while.

you can use the xbox one as a wireless display. and connect your pc there.

Good, when it's not supported it's a lucky dip as to how well it runs

How old? You MacBook is running a Sandy bridge CPU, there are 8 generations of newer Intel CPU's beyond that guy. Sandy bridge hasn't been relevant in years. The fact is mobile chips don't age as well as their desktop counterparts. Also the support thing is an issue, Apple doesn't supply drivers forever. 
 
Maybe think about a Linux OS of some kind. 

Your Mac isn't on the supported list so won't run well. It's not supported after high sierra. 

The reason it's slow is becuase your AMD graphics are unsupported. Mojave and Catalina don't support AMD Radeon HD5000 and 6000 graphics.
You'll need to disable your AMD card completely in firmware to get the HD3000 to step in, which is also kinda slow.
 
It's the same way with my Mac Pro 2008, which has a 5870 card. High Sierra runs great, Mojave/Catalina does not.

If you have Xbox Live Gold, Project Cars 2 is free right now.

Maybe try contacting Microsoft to transfer your key to a store purchase. I am not sure if they will go for it but better to try than having to buy the game again.

when you download it. they are yours to keep forever
 
the refund are for those people who bought the games recently. before the play at home initiative promo happened

i love the xbox 360. the kinect is great for when my friends are over. great for gatherings and parties too  

yeah. just got it.. it's all disc games. tbh i feel like the 200$ alone is worth it for all the games. and i got the console for free. hahaha. One of the controllers is the gears of wars 4 red controller btw. really sweet deal.
thanks guys

Only really seems worth it for the games as imo the original Xbox one's size, performance, and experience going into next gen is not worth $200. Obviously a ps4 at that same price with games would be a better deal in many people's eyes in terms of console exclusives, etc. That being said tho, a freesync display might be a great addition to that Xbox one and make some of the worst offending games in terms of performance a lot better.

Are those disc copies of the games? If so, it's worth it just for the 2 controllers and the games (assuming you like all or even most of the games).
 
Personally I went with the One S, because of the 4K Blu-Ray player upgrade, and the few tweaks they did in the revision. But performance wise, the One S is "essentially" the same as the original One, so yeah... not crazy.
 
As for PS5 and Series X? Those are gonna cost a lot more than $200, and the cost to buy those 27 games is gonna be near enough $200 anyway.
 
Plus if you ever decide to upgrade to the Series X, those games will still work.

If the games it comes with are physical games that you would play that is a great deal. Digital games wouldn't be worth the hassle. Supposedly the series x is going to have no console exclusives for the first year, so why not get an xbox one.

Wow. great collection  
the most retro console i have is a ps1. i wish i could get my hands on some really retro consoles like yours. Also. the CRT tv is a great touch for a retro setup

Here's my consoles.

never. games are meant to be fun, and hacking takes away the fun of others. i wouldn't want to earn money at the expense of other people

Overcooked is a really fun coop game.

Some people choose a certain console over another because of the exclusive games that it has, other because of the consoles that their friends have and others just have personal preference.

About that exclusive, are the exclusive games on the Xbox the same with PC?
