Whats your budget and what will you be needing it for

A nice MATX system will go nice there, but it depends on your budget.

i cant see much to the left of tv but it can go on floor or next to tv and then use xbox controller for gaming

most pc users swear by keyboard and mouse but i am a lazy gamer and mostly use my xbox one so prefer to sit in bed or away from monitor and use my 360 controller with a wireless adapter to game on pc.

that way you dont really need a desk for it you can also get wireless keyboard and mouse so you can use pc wherever you are sitting.

i would say get the pc as you can upgrade it easier then you can will the laptop but you will need room for the keyboard and mouse unless you use a controller

A couple of builds here

Pentium Build
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


I5 Build
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


Diffrence?
The Pentium one is for Bosses & includes an SSD

The I5 is meh but is still a good build

Ive chosen the 804 Node as I personally love the case and would think it would go nicely in that spot in your room.

Edit: The 804 Node is 14 inches in width which gives you room to play with
