Buyer rule
Start from the play style
Start with the TV and seating distance, then match the GPU, HDMI cable, case noise, controller, keyboard, and power strip layout.
Living room gaming setup
Build the living-room PC around TV, control, and quiet power
A living-room gaming PC has different constraints than a desk PC: TV input, cable length, couch controls, noise, case size, and power placement. Use these lanes to assemble the cart around the room.

Risk
Avoid the mismatched setup
The common mistake is building a normal tower setup and later fighting cable reach, fan noise, controller pairing, and TV input limitations.
