you're going to buy the new steam machine, right anon?
It entirely depends on price. That's the dealbreaker.
>>726101927
>>726101927Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa 2ya
>>726101927>>726102038What this anon said, but I also want to know what it could practically do as well. I've been using a 1050ti for close to ten years now so if it can outperform my current set up, which is very likely, I'm all in if the price is right. I'd probably just move my whole set up over if there's a good DAW on linux, or if I can just use FL Studio on it without any trouble.
>>726101927not sure yet, but I'll definitely get a deck 2
My current puter has better specs.
>>726101927gotta be $499-600, anything higher can suck my dick
>>726101927It's the only Valve hardware I'm not particularly interested in. I'll get it if it's cheap.
>>726101927Unlikely, but definitely need the controller ASAP.
I already have a pc
>>726101927No.But only because I already have a much better PC and don't need Steam's handholding OS.It's a good idea for most people though.I wish they'd make a new SteamLink box though.
shamelessly stolen from twitter
Honestly yeah. I just really fucking love the form factor.I tried to make something like it a year ago and it was a fucking mess figuring how to tetris the shit out of parts while keeping the cooling decent.
I have a $3800 desktop PC I got for free cleaning an old lady's house. Apparently her son made it and then left to college and then got married and stopped talking to her and left her to rot in some old apartment. I didn't care about any of that because I'm a heckin unwholesome psychopath so I convinced her it was garbage and ruined by someone spilling soda in it and I'd throw it out for her. Anyway, thanks for listening guys. We going to the bar after this?
>>726101927if its under 600 monies sure, anything higher and its not worth it
>>726102145same... but I'm getting older and it's harder to lift mine. It's like picking up a bloodhound
>>726102127can probably use wine to run most of that shit anyway
>>726102363just get a framework retard
>>726102434Weakling.
>>726102440That's what I was thinking but I wonder what'd run best through wine on linux between the different DAWs out there
>>726102579Nah. Scam shit.
Doing anything with a full size ATX case is a pain in the ass. Going with itx for my next build. I'll gladly pay the itx tax
>>726102434why are you going around lifting your pc? the steam machine is 3kg too, the thing is dense as fuck.
desu I just want one to fuck around and experiment withI also really want to dig into how Valve engineered the internals of the thingIm really interested in making similar build
>>726102873>worse airflow>worse cable management>can't fit large gpusfuck small form factor, i want my pc case to be as big as possible, to have more gravitational pull than your mom.
>>726101927You shit on that box?
>>726101927Ill get it (price dependant) 6 months after release. So the Steamies can product test it for me
>>726101927Can you upgrade it with a better ssd or higher ram?
>>726103023what kind of testing do you expect there to be? the components are already from the previous gen and steamOS is on its third iteration.
Can i play my Furry Visual Novels and WoW in my Smart TV in there?
>>726102989you can fit a full gpu and psu in a lot of itx cases.Mid towers are useless since any spinning disk will be in a NAS and dvd/bd drive can be usb
>>726103125>visual novelsrenpy games run natively>wowhas run on linux since 2005
>>726102989>worse airflowThis. The only grill is on the back of the G-Cube , where does the cold air come from? Or does the fan alternates between sucking and blowing?
>>726101927Like most people, it depends on what the price but it will be a decent upgrade than what I got in my current desktop. So maybe. My GPU is about to turn 7.
>>726103147I got your pic rel case with a matxlove it to bits
>>726103182It has shit both on the back and underneath it
>>726101927No, I don't think I will.
>>726101927>Let's coomerfy every inanimate object!Japs should have gotten the third nuke
>>726102374kill yourself
>>726102038this.we should ban talking about this thing until they tell people how much it costs.
>>726101927consoles should come with onaholes
>>726104258the conversation isn't relevant, they're obviously going to price it as competitively as possible, doing anything else would be stupid.the steam machine will be the cheapest prebuilt on the market, they don't have to pay for a windows license and they can afford to sell at cost because they recoup on steam sales.
>>726104192Sorry faggot, I'm going to live longer than you because I don't have AIDS from a nigger fucking my ass like you do.
>>726101927depend the price >600usd yes>650usd maybe>700usd nope
>>726104363>t. projecting, aids ridden nigger
ToT
>>726104417This post truly is by a projecting aids ridden nigger. Alright enough fooling around guys I need some food, lets go get some grub.
>>726104467>>726104417
It's just bait for anyone with a decent PC. Unless they have family.
>>726101927damn cube brat
Another bex chek?
>>726102989>worse airflowIf Valve does their homework they can guarantee that each component that needs it gets adequate cooling. The PC solution is to stick a trillion fans to get an abundance of airflow.
>>726102374send pics of the pc
>>726104738the steam machine doesn't need good airflow because it's underpowered as fuck.the cpu is 30 watts and the gpu 110 watts.
>>726104809>muh my pc needs to draw 1000 wattsJeetcoded opinion
>>726104936i'm using under powered literally there anon, it's just a very efficient machine. i would know because i have a very similar setup. as long as you're doing 1080p it will run everything under the sun for at least the next 5 years. ps5 is about as powerful and there's 100 million of those, so devs aren't going to stop making games for this hardware anytime soon.
>>726102873why do you people act like the difference between large heavy case #1 and slightly smaller heavy case #2 matters? do you ask the salesman how much a couch weighs before you buy it too?
>>726102038Too expensive for poorfags, that's fore sure.
>>726102392It's going to be $800 at least.You just know.
>>726105607zen4 cpu, rdna3 gpu, ddr5 ram... yeah i don't think it'll be able to go as low as 600. 700-800 is more likely unless valve manages to strike some incredible hardware deals.
>Valve dragging these retard devs back to 8gb againBaaaaaased.
no I'm getting a nintendo gamecube
>>726101927for what? there hasnt been a single good game in a decade.
>>726101927Only if it looks like this
>>726106695too pudgyAlso is that a bulge or a puffy vagina?
>>726105840>He thinks the devs careLMAO
>>7261058408gb forever.
>>726101927i'm not going to buy the saturnian jew cube
>>726105840Is there any game that requires more than 8gb vram for 1080p?
>>726101927For what purpose? Having one in the middle of the living room while I already have a good desktop? You can just stream to your TV even with small factor raspberry pi based solutions.Only reason to consider it is being a poorfag still running a 1060 and also being retarded because you'll then get locked onto their hardware with no possibility of upgrade other than the nvme which is basically the point of pc gaming.Also curious about the thermals.
>>726108686Any UE5 gameAnything on the RE engineEven alot of indie slop nowdays
>>726108752I see 8 vram cards for the 1080p recommendations for most of these games.Care to provide an example?
>>726108884>Recommended specsLMAOYea dude, go try running it with 8gb and post the footage, I can wait.
>>726108980?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgAwv1pFz-EAre you stupid?
>>726101927Can it run heavy games? My actual pc is kinda old so instead of upgrading I might just buy this thing for games
>>726109032>All low settingsYeah nah I'll just buy a PS5 lmao
>>726109214the default graphic settings on ps5 for most games is low settings anyway, lmao dumbass.
>>726109074for the specs it has, you can pretty much play any game right now as long youre not trying to do native 4K and crank up max settings for any game made in the past 3 years
Wonder how this machine will work for fighting games
>>726101927valve should let renji design all their hardware
>>726102374Wowzers
yet another organic steam console thread
>>726106695chat is this real???
>>726106695lamei'd rather fuck OP pic
>>726106695what would happen if I flicked her bean?
what's something I can do with this that isn't video games? I like the form factor but not sure what I'd do with it.
>>726115612Well, you can post on /v/ about not wanting to play video games with it.
>>726101927Bought the first Steam controller and Steam Deck (then later upgraded to OLED). I'll be buying the Steam Controller 2 day one.That said, I'll be skipping this for a reason I'm sure you'll all find odd: O&OShupUp10+. If it wasn't for this ONE program, I would've gone to Linux years ago.inb4 why not learn to use custom windows installers for privacyBecause that doesn't stop Windows updates from adding the bullshit back in. O&O just needs a quick update and it does. It had copilot shut down day one of release.But it almost single-handedly solves all of my problems with Windows 11 and makes it a OS I can deal with. On top of it, I've gotten really good at making Windows work for me rather than against me. Once you know the secret sauce (use winget to update, revo to uninstall, setting Services, Task manager to turn off startup apps), it works really smooth.
>>726101927Can't wait for tomorrow's Console-Tan Tuesday to decide on the design of this fucking thing.
>>726105542Tech is usually cheap where I live, so if it goes for around 700~ dollars like the steam deck, I'll buy it in a heartbeat.
>>726102038Correct, if it's over $599 it's a skip.
>>726101927Why would I buy an expensive underpowered prebuilt pc with a weird controller when I could just upgrade my current pc
WHAT'S IN THE BOX?
I'm willing to buy it, but I need to see footage of Oblivion Remastered, Stellar Blade, and Dragon's Dogma 2 being playing on the Steam Machine before buying it. My purchase depends entirely on how well it runs those demanding games.
>>726116754controller is already a bespectacled asian girl with bangs. console is going to have to compete with that and it has no distinctive features to work with
>>726101927>you're going to buy the new steam machine, right anon?I am more likely to lose my virginity.
>>726119898why not lose your virginity to the steam machine?
>>726101927the bratbox?
>>726118956It'll be priced competitively to a similar custom-built PC.This means the price will be between 499 and 699.
>>726101927I will fuck this cube
>>726121827>between 499 and 699kek you wishi wish toobut they already said it will be more expensive than current gen consoles (like ps5 pro which is 700)
>>726121827I'm guessing between 6 and 7
>>726101927Steamy loads? Like an upper (Steam) Decker?
>>726101927Yes. Whatever. I've been wanting something so I can play my steam games and gog games, mostly old 90s shit, with a controller. Maybe I can mod out some Skyrim because console mods sucks. Not buying a new PC until tes 6, and I'm praying, despite knowing, that it doesn't suck. Because I'm so old, and such health issues, that tes 6 may be my last big release before death.
>>726102038Exactly this. I'm all for new hardware if the price is reasonable.
