Any reason not to use my 13 as my only PC? (alien.top)

Just got my 13 with the 7840 and I'm realizing that even the integrated GPU is more powerful than the one in my old PC, which has an i7 4790k and a GTX 970.

Is there any reason I shouldn't just sell that relic and just run the Framework docked at home? I lose a little desk space, but I'm failing to see why I should keep using this desktop.

I am looking at selling my desktop as well. If you were looking at power gaming or more gpu power amd does support usb4 and could use an egpu. Gpd makes the g1 portable epgu but is not upgradable. Maybe someday framework will bring a dpgu system to 13 like they have for the 16.
