While the Mac mini isn't the highest-performing gaming machine around, it can play quite a few popular titles, and the Mac App Store is full of fantastic games — from big studios and indie game developers — that are designed to run on Apple software. Of course, if you plan on doing any gaming on your Mac mini, you're going to want some great gaming accessories to make sure you're getting the best experience.

Which one should you choose?

There's a ton of gaming accessories you can pick up for your Mac mini, and any of the options on this list is going to improve your experience. Just exactly how much money you want to invest in creating your Mac mini battle station is up to you. I prefer to use controllers when gaming, and I have a SteelSeries Nimbus Wireless Gaming Controller and love it.

If you don't care much about gaming, but love to watch your favorite shows on your computer, then you should consider grabbing the LG UltraFine 4K. Colors really pop on it's 23.7-inch screen, so watching movies and tv shows in Ultra 4K is an enjoyable experience. If you throw in the amazing Fluance Ai40 bookshelf speakers, then you stand to have one hell of an entertainment system on top of your day-to-day computing.
