Same. I kept using laptops for many years after moving to home office but last year decided to go back to a desktop (micro-ATX build).

I get 4-5x the performance of my last work laptop (Dell XPS i9) for the same price. It's dead silent and has a ton of ports.

Sourced at local companies in my country and not latest gen (Intel 14th gen was too new when I bought it and was overpriced. Same for DDR5).
