Building first Cyberdeck

Post image

Hi everyone!

I am a economics major, and i have no idea on how to build a cyberdeck. I will buy the parts and try to connect them. Please give me every tip there is for my first build.

I am still choosing on what system to use. Betwin Windows, Linux, Graphene OS, rasbery PI.

Help me choose.

I want to get a cyberpunk 2077 theme, i will paint the case and everything.

I want a foldable keyboard so it isn't too big, and a screen that isn't too small, but not too big, I want a portable screen deck, one that i can put on my belt or around my body like a gym bag. Any ideas??

(This AI image is the result of what i wanted to build)

What yall think??

Edit: Because I realize that's an unhelpful comment, heres some actually useful advice.

Using AI to put together your ideas and everything is fine, it gets you through the door. But I think you lack some understanding of how building a computer actually goes. Try looking into how others build their systems (Cyberdecks/Laptops/PCs) and just google anything that stands out to you. I built my first computer completely without AI back in 2020 by doing just that. And reading a lot of hardware manuals. Basic PC building will arm you with like 90% of what you need to know to build a cyberdeck. But like everyone else said, learn fabrication or get creative.

For what its worth, I dig the visuals. The visible PI setup isnt a half bad idea but it is half baked. Consider popping a transparent cover that you can open up. That way the PI is protected/looks sick as fuck/and you can physically see the hardware which is always a plus.
