clubhonda on Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Game & Learn Controller $9 + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59 Spend) @ Amazon AU

It's worth noting that not all mail accounts have this feature, so it's understandable if you haven't done it before.

Swing on Verbatim Vi3000 2TB NVMe M.2 SSD - $119 Delivered ($0 VIC, NSW, SA C&C) + Surcharge @ Centre Com

It would be okay as a read cache, but I wouldn't rely on it for sustained writes since you could end up with a QLC model.

If it’s just for non-gaming productivity, a cheaper Ryzen 5000 series in the $400 price range would be plenty.

I’ve experienced two different generic chargers explode in front of me. I only buy reputable ones now, especially for high wattages.

Batocera works well on these mini PCs. You can emulate up to Wii U, with occasional frame dips in demanding titles.

Just bear in mind that your NM790 is TLC and this SSD is QLC. Under some scenarios, QLC can be extremely slow.
