Your figure likely doesn’t account for SysMain (Superfetch) making use of what would otherwise be empty (“wasted”) RAM to predict what applications the user is likely to open and keep it preloaded to optimize speed.
Try disabling the SysMain service and restarting the system to get a sense of what your actual memory pressure would like.
I’m currently looking at a clean install of Windows 11 + drivers, fully up to date, sitting at 3.2GB utilization on a 16GB system.

No, not that I care to. The nature of a PC makes that fundamentally pointless.
The GOG games I buy have the option to download an offline installer that I back up redundantly on multiple external disks. I am able to include all of the games’ updates instead of being stuck with the often broken launch version of a game.
After checking temperatures, hooking up a PSU is the next easiest thing you can do to isolate the issue. No need to fully install it - just remove the panel, disconnect your current PSU’s connectors, and then hook up the replacement with the PSU sitting out front.
Not sure how similar it might be in Poland, but in the US some corps have very flexible return policies so I would ‘borrow’ whatever’s convenient and then return it after ordering what I actually want.
Alternatively, your local repair shop could probably do this all within 15 minutes.

What would have happened is that you would have had a bad time lol, the rest of us sure did
If we haven’t already passed it, we are rapidly coming up on 10 years that Microsoft’s game releases have been for both Windows and Xbox Consoles.
My bad lol, I ADHD’d my way in and out of reading your post and seems like I skipped the latter half
Good point
There’s a whole market of pocketable handhelds where you can carry around 40 years of retro gaming. Retroid, Miyoo, AYANEO.
There are others that run Android, giving you access newer mobile games on a dedicated device with physical buttons.
I’d argue that, in 2026, pocketable mobile gaming is better than it has ever been.
There are pocket-sized controllers intended for mobile device use with varying degrees of tradeoff

With a mechanical keyboard, you can get a set of keycaps to suit your preferred aesthetic- including pudding caps to let RGB lighting do the styling.
Been a big fan of Keychron for quite some time now.
On the cheap end of the spectrum, I have several $30 RedDragon mechanical keyboards that are still going strong after 5+ years of daily use.

John Craigie tells it how it is

Em-dashes existed long before LLMs - where do you think they got them from?
There’s also a registry edit to make it the default without having to remember a modifier key
That could be something as silly as a loose cable being struck by a fan blade.
Doesn’t seem like getting access to the fan to confirm is terribly complex if you want to give it a shot yourself. This guide doesn’t cover that specifically, but it’ll get you most of the way there: https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Steam+Machine+(2nd+Generation)+M.2+SSD+Hard+drive+Replacement/224781
The fan should be able to spin freely and quietly when you give it a push with your finger.
What’s going on up at the nut?

Cruise control is your friend here, with the extra benefit of maximizing fuel efficiency
If you get everything out if those 3.5” / 5.25” bays you might just be able to do a clever rotation to get the card into place
