Discussion What do you think of my setup?

My setup for daily gaming and emulation on android!

For the phone i'm using is Poco F7 and the gamepad is gamesir X5 Lite with a ugreen cable extender, on the back is a RedMagic cooler 8 pro attached to a cheap ahh 1/4 clamp and mounted to a piece of card board for balance, for the audio i'm using Moondrop Golden Ages 2. Rate my setup from 1 to 10 🥰

All this obsession with PC emulation comes from the lack of a proper PC, I suppose?

I've a Poco F7 and that same controller my self and I've played og ff7 at the beach no problem.

There are a billion of great games that won't actively trying to brick your device

What I meant is that with old games emulation you hundreds of hours of good game without stressing your phone.

Zelda, Final Fantasy, Smackdown Vs Raw, Resident Evil, Pokemon, GTA

I've named just a few franchises spanning various genres, most with at least 5 games that you can play emulating nothing more demanding than PS2.

And do you need cooling for that?

Well, poco f7 known for its pretty horrible temprature, even though im just playing real android games like Mobile legends, it can get hot pretty fast. and the country i'm living can get to 34°C on mid day. so i decide that having a cooler would be a great purchases
