Why are you doing this? I actually read the first few lines and figured it was a joke, are you really going to use 2 PC's because you can't handle management of startup items on a system?

I don't know where you have the idea of "startup items" from.

I'm doing it to fix current issues and potential future ones. I probably should have made a pro and con list to start things off. But it's basically like this:

Pro:

No performance impact on games whatsoever caused by non-essential programs and components.

No driver issues due to multiple monitors with different resolutions and refresh rates. GPC will have only one monitor going forward.

Ability to turn off gaming PC with electricity hungry components instead of having it run 24/7.

Ability to move default main screen to TV instead of gaming monitor. Saves me a lot of window pushing.

Ability to upgrade GPC and SPC separately without impacting the other.

 

Con:

Money?

 

That's from the top of my head. There are probably more pros somewhere. What you should keep in mind is that I have a very specific setup that is far from the norm. The vast majority of the time I use my PC from my couch via the TV. My gaming chair is on the other side of the room.
