I use it for my 2400g projects. It works great for programming and game development. Just not for AAA titles, though I can handle complex tasks well.
You can deploy as many virtual machines as your available RAM and storage provide. It seems unclear why a graphics card with four outputs wouldn’t support running four distinct VMs or desktops. Running Windows as the host and Linux VMs would be more efficient, freeing up system resources for gaming while allowing you to shut down the Linux instance when needed.
there are numerous shoebox-sized ITX cases offering better performance, even when you assemble them yourself. Your main issue seems to stem from conflicting ideas about your project—balancing an APU with a high workload. Consider compact ITX options that fit your needs instead of compromising on power. There are even configurations under 12L with top-tier specs available. Choosing an APU for heavy use isn’t ideal, even with an 8-core processor; don’t sacrifice quality just because space is tight.
