>>726465028>Advertised as a PC>DURRR WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT WONT COST AS MUCH AS A CONSOLE THAT CAN ONLY PLAY GAMES
More like GAYcube
>>726465096It's weaker than base PS5 and XSS
>>726465096you'd be better off buying a PS5 Pro over that thing
ANAL-GapeMECCube
>>726465139Sure it is big guy
>>726465028It is as good as the PS5 Pro.Why do people expect Valve to set lower price tags when Sony buys hardware in millions of units with a 50% discount, maybe even more?
>>726465139>XSSYou mean XSX. It is more powerful than the XSS.
>>726465161Bot post
>>726465161No one cares about your 4chin graphic, all tech experts agree the Steam Machine is weaker than PS5, including Gamers Nexus
>>726465213It's actually slightly below base PS5
>>726465101your filename is sus
>Hey can you tell me the exact price of the Steam Machines while we're in the middle of a ram shortage where prices are fluctuating like crazy???>No>Valve is evil and the Steam Machine is going to cost Six Million dollars and they're also a bad company
>>726465161>still using the same debunked dmc5 comparison from 2020lmao you retards really have no material
Another floppa from Gaben
>>726465336PS5 has modified rx 6600, Steam Machine RX 7600, which is 30-40% faster.
Still gonna get it. I'm in my 30's and just don't have the time or interest to get into building my own PC anymore, or dealing with Windows's bullshit. I also don't have much space so the small and sleek design is perfect for me. I have Win 7 PC from 2015 with a GTX 970 that still works well to this day, but I want to prepare in case it dies on me.

This thing will be a tough sell $800+, beyond 1k your getting into more powerful prebuilt territory
yes the ram shortage will cause the steam machine to be 1000$+nvidia and amd already announced that they're making their gpus more expensive because of it.this is going to be the normal. Deal with it.
>>726465508>this is going to be the normal. Deal with it.No it isn't, the AI bubble is just an excuse to try to speedrun reshoring tech industries, the same way COVID was a speedrun mass gene therapy tech trial.The world is governed via manged "emergencies."
>>726465414Wrong.
When you realize PS6 and Xbox PC will come out one year later this thing looks even less appealing
>>726465654pricing aren't going down when the bubble will burst, little bro
>>726465414Yes, you're wrong. It's not a modified anything, it's custom silicon.
>>726465683>lil brook zoomie
>>726465096>advertised as a PC>can't replace and upgrade the parts>doesn't even have a fukken drive bay, only storage expansion is microSD and NVME>explicitly stated to be designed for TVs, lists Living Rooms first when it comes to using itSure buddy
>>726465715>ok zoomieok unc
>>726465656>>726465704There is no way an RDNA3 GPU is slower than an RDNA2 GPU from the lower end.
>>726465781You do know you can get a USB 3.0 HD/SSD these days, right?I have one I took out of a laptop I use on my deck while it's docked, right now, and pretty much the only thing I have to do is not crank the power down on it?
>>726465474oh no, time to kill myself :(
>>726465474Dude at $750-800 theritory you already have much powerful prebuilts with Rx 9060 xt 16gb vram or RTX 5060 8gb vram. They also give you ddr5 ram and 1tb sad unlike greedy bastarda at Valve. Cou will still be not that great and 6 core however it won't be heavy downclocked. Steam machine = scam if it sells at over $500-600
>>726465913Do you have it plugged into the dock or to the deck directly while docked? Not sure how this works but plan to grab a deck come December. Is the official dock any better than third party alternatives or are you paying for the name tax
>>726466043Forget to mention about superior fsr4 or just dlss that blows dogshit fsr2/3 thank Gabe box wil be using. I would rather not play the game than be forced to use that blurry mess again.
>>726465836do try to use the internet to get yourself up to speed on the specifications of various hardware
>>726465028>mid range pc>"that will be 1500 dollars +tip. Huh? Half Life 3? *laughs"
>>726465508Total bs>>726466043
It also has HDMI 2.0 which is what the ps4 pro had

>>726465913>You do know you can get a USB 3.0 HD/SSD these days, right?Indeed I do. It's actually funny you say "these days," given that I actually have a 1TB USB HDD sitting on top of my desktop right now, and it's one I've had pretty much for ages. You want to know why I still use it, despite it being from back when I myself was on a laptop? Because despite having about 5.5TB of internal storage across a few drives, and having a 4TB NAS for backups and multimedia, there's an ever present need for more storage, and I already fucking hate having to have just the one external HDD sitting comfortably on top of my desktop. The idea of a fukken rats nest of USB HDDs sitting alongside a Gabecube is just incredibly funny to me, but something I wouldn't wish on anyone.
>>726466164remind me in 2-3 months when prebuilts have to buy new ram, little broThen check out the prices.
>>726466150>random e-celebs predicted somethingNot real info.
>>726466128What’s to say there won’t be a variant of Decky allowing you to get fsr4 in some way like on the Deck
>>726466227Idiot thinks fsr4 on rdna3 is the same as on rdna4. You will beseverely disappointed at how much lower will be your frame rate. I suspect fps drops to 30fps and below in Space Marine at fake 4k performance. Pathetic just pathetic
>>726466128You can use FSR4 on rdna 2 and 3 already
>>726465028people still watch this guy?
>>726466194Linus mentioned it has 2.1 speed but missing features
>>726465414>>726465836the PS5 has 36 CUs so its actually closer to the RX 6700 and the cube is closer to the RX 6600 with its 28 CUsRDNA 3 isn't much of an improvement over RDNA 2 outside of raytracing
>>726466127I had it hooked up to the dock, but have used it way less often since I got a 512gb sd card.>Is the official dock any better than third party alternatives or are you paying for the name tax?I can't speak for EVERY single device you could theoretically plug into a steam deck, but a family member bought me a third party dock off amazon and after using it like, twice? The charger that came with my Steam Deck stopped working.At best I'd say your mileage may vary.Official dock so far hasn't given any issues.
also if they were smart they'd put it at $500, or even $400nobody is going to buy it if it's at or more than a ps5 pro
>>726466241>The idea of a fukken rats nest of USB HDDs sitting alongside a Gabecube is just incredibly funny to me, but something I wouldn't wish on anyone.I mean yeah that hypothetical situation would probably suck, but then I realized how many actually good games you can fit on a 512gb microsd card. (It's a lot)
>>726466297And performance is dogshit. You lose way more frames as you don't have FP8, int8 fsr4 is just crap especially on underpowered downclocked hardware like steam machine.Valve will never enable it officially as gamers would be complaining about sub 30-40 fps drops in AAA games. Only total fool would be buying SM instead of a prebuilt pc
>>726466345while the ps5/xbox is too weak to make use of the powerful gpu, I would still like to know the clock speed they operate the gpu at
>>726466401There's nothing weak about the PS5 or its CPU, if that's what you're alluding to that gets bottlenecked.>would still like to know the clock speed they operate the gpu at2.23ghz
>>72646634515% rasterization and 1.8 times raytracing performance.The PS5 wouldn’t be able to match the Steam Machine’s performance in any UE5 title, even if it had 64 RDNA 2 CUs.And non-UE5 titles are nowhere as demanding.
>>726466394>but then I realized how many actually good games you can fit on a 512gb microsd card. (It's a lot)Casual. You just don't know how many good games there are out there. Everyone thinks they're nice and cozy when everything is measured in megabytes and you can sometimes store scores of them within a single GB, but that shit adds up quick, especially with any extra files and mods, and in the end it's only the casuals with a limited frame of reference who think their libraries can fit in a paltry 512GB, or the people who, EURHGURUHRG, say they'll DELETE their games and """GET BACK""" to them later that are fine with limited storage.
>>726466514>The PS5 wouldn’t be able to match the Steam Machine’s performance in any UE5 title, even if it had 64 RDNA 2 CUs.RT on PS5 isn't that big of an issue, just turned down settings the way the Steam Machine will need for its textures, resolution, RT and everything else to not choke the 8GB of Vram
>>726466346What model do to have, lcd or oled? Did you upgrade the internal storage or find the microSD expansion sufficient on it’s own
>>726466538Even aside from the fact that I have games that are collections of games like the genesis collection, just on my steam installs alone I've got 65 games, and over in Retroarch I've got 87 games indexed.That's already 152 games and I've STILL been too lazy to figure out converting the eboots off my Vita back into a format Retroarch likes, or ripping the games off my 3ds, or games from my Steam Library I just haven't bothered installing just yet.
>>726465781>advertised as a PCits advertised as a hybrid>explicitly stated to be designed for TVsbecause its a hybrid using a version of steam big picture mode, which is a feature steam has had for a long ass time. you can just hook up a regular PC to a tv, you know?>doesn't even have a fukken drive bayneither do 99% of the PC released in the past decade you fucking retard. buy a usb disk drive like everyone else, faggot.
>>726465028>more powerful than a PS5>fully functional as a PC>WTF WHY ISNT CHEAPER THAN A PS5!????? I KNOW THERES A SHORTAGE AND COMPANIES ARE GETTING FUCKED BY TARIFFS, BUT IT SHOULD BE CHEAPER
>>726466509It is weak, you can check the benchmarks or buy the hardware and run them yourself
>>726466394>but then I realized how many actually good games you can fit on a 512gb microsd card. (It's a lot)That's not a lot just few emulator rom folders will take way over your tiny 512gb ssd. And then you will have no space for your old pc games, indies and also AA/AAA games. 2tb is the bare minimum you would want to have.
>>726466801Launch Day 64gb with a 256gb drive.I don't know if the 64gb would have been fine I planned on it since at the time I found a 256gb drive for cheaper than it would have been to pay for the 256gb one.So far 256gb internal with a 512gb microsd has been fine, really the only big fuckin gaem that's been a "problem" had been CS:2 and kind of sort of TF2.I had KH 1.5 + 2.5 installed, but I stream that from my desktop usually now.And even then I call it a "problem" but very rarely would I have all three installed.
>>726466875I already have the hardware and an RTX 3060 I can compare it. My sources are techpowerup.com and not some Brazilian youtuber that fakes benchmarks and somehow has every graphics card on earth
>>726466871It's not more powerful than ps5. It's pure crap and will cost way more than base ps5. Tariffs doesn't exist for rest of the world so why would i be affected by it your amerimutt retarded president?
>>726466928>not loading roms from network storage
>>726466928I don't want to be rude.But are you fucking downloading like, Whole ass rom sets?Why the fuck would you do that?
>>726466978sure you can get comparable results to a ps5 with a 3060 and a $2 aliexpress cpu
>>726466875ps5 hardware is more than enough to play any game it's just competent devs got replaced by mouth breathing millennials/zoomers that need to be brutally beaten due their inccompetence and then fired
>>726465161Are you retarder? Do you realize the cpu manufacturer pretty much just makes one sku of CPUs per gen, and then depending on how well that particular CPU turns out they sell it across the wholr spectrum low end to high end? The 9800x3d started life the same way as the 9100, the 9800 was just stronger
>>726467035Yes your feelings are more accurate than actual benchmarks
>>726465781>can't replace partsYou can. With a soldering iron. The OS isn't locked down at least so it's not going to refuse to boot with modified hardware.
>>726467034I have a ryzen 7 5700Greally disingenuous trying to compare the 7 3700x, that's way above what most Steam users have to some chinkshit
>>726467019>loading games 10x slower than me on my ssd>>726467024Huh? i've been downloading all of them manually. I have collection games i've been playing across all consoles (mostly ps2/ps3). Whole rom sets would take multiple terabytes.
>>726465028>selling a PC which anyone can throw an OS on>WTF why aren't they selling it at a loss?>this is bullshit I want to underpay for the hardware so I can be raped long term insteadConsoletards will never be satisfied
>>726467076Dude i just told you why games run this badly and you just come back commenting without reading my post. Good job. No shit they run bad if you have hack devs that have no drive or passion and are ultra lazy and want to automate every single thing on dogshit UE5.
>>726467109>loading games 10x slower than me on my ssdNigga you're running playstation games, 10x slower than your SSD is STILL basically instantaneous.
>>726467109PS3, sure load it locally, PS2 and lower though, you won't notice a difference.
>>726467142Maybe they should sell it at loss if they are selling outdated dogshit with performance of a 2019 pc.
>>726465028It's literally a pc. Why are they making this? Are they insane? They could have made 20 trillion dollars if they just made a console.
>>726467209I can speed up ps1/2 fake loading animation as everything already been loaded on my ssd in just 1sec
>>726467228Not what's happening, no matter how much you're paid to say so.
>>726467257How slow is your router?
>>726467265You steamies are mentally ill. Have you preordered that useless brick on day 1 or something? Why won't you stop defending the corporation that doesn't give a single fuck about you and tries to sell you outdated crap at double the price.
>>7264671073700x is twice as fast as consoles and around $40
>>726465781Sounds good. Might grab one for my son and I to play goat simulator on.
>>726467395objectively false and low iq unless you provide sources
>>726465101gay ben is making it after all
>>726466970Thanks for the info, aside from screen protector and dock any other accessories jump out at you a must have or just great qol stuff
>>726465096>Advertised as a PCIt has none of the appeal of a PC.>No real way to upgrade>Intended for the living room>Game focus first above allIt's competing with consoles whether Valve likes it or not. It doesn't appeal to either group unless it can brag about how cheap it is.
>>726467532Uhhhh, a controller for if you want it docked I guess?Maybe like a logitech k400 if you want to use it to shitpost on 4chan sometimes.I'd say get a Steam Controller but they don't sell those anymore/right now.Pretty much all I've done with mine is stick a bunch of stickers to it, because I like stickers, as far as like accessorizing goes.
>>726467517 see the top of the thread.why is that the case? let's see:>1/4 cache>lower clock speed>150 ns memory latency
>>726467658Oh, and I guess an alright sized Microsd card.
>>726467768I know a lot of people love Samsung but I’m kinda boycotting them since the explodey note fiasco and I know next to nothing about microSD as I don’t own a digital camera or Switch anymore. Is this brand decent, trash, is it to slow or just right spec wise.
>>726467957I don't know, I got a sandisk one because I thought the color was neat, works great.
>>726465096A Minisforum 790S7 mini PC at $900 has double the RAM, double the CPU performance, and 40% better GPU performance than a Steam Machine.$500-600 is the only price range that makes sense.
>>726468056Gotcha, thanks
>local racemixer desperate for youtube views will say anything to get attentionMore at eleven
>>726468221$500 would put their margins way too tight and almost certainly in the red. It's $600 minimum since they've said they will not subsidize the costs.
>>726465028That'll be 900+tax+tariff+tip+controller sold separately
>>726465663Those are going to cost even more, don't know why people still have faith in shitty living room boxes. Hell, the Xbox one is also a Mini PC, NOT A CONSOLE.
>>726465028A small comment made by Linus is feeding so many Jeets who made this articles. It's crazy.
>>726465824Fuck off kid
>>726468221It'll be $600 without the controller, $650 with it, 2TB will be $800 and $850 depending on the controller.
I figure $699 or $799 so it’s higher than the base consoles while offering more freedom being a pc. It’s not going to be competitive with those who subsidize but it’s about where you want to play and what you are willing to sacrifice.
>>726468394>Xbox one is also a Mini PCCan you install windows on it?
>>726465028It's shit. No market for this thing if it isn't even going to be cheap.
Holy sh-...I was gonna buy this thing but I just found out it uses HDMI 2.0...
>>726465161what am i meant to infer from this graphic who's side are you on
Switch 2 sales are drying up. 5% off announced for black Friday sales. Nintendo consoles NEVER normally go on sale like this after just 3 months.
>>726468884If it used 2.1 do you really think the hardware on it would support anything that 2.1 brings to the table.like cmon man that's just not the dealbreaker here.
>>726465157Kek no
>>726468978make your own thread
>>726465096imagine selling a low end shitty PC and trying to price it as much as a console. imagine depending that practice
>>726468549It'll already have full Windows on it
>>726465028Linus is a fucking retard though, why he got invited to anything serious like this is always beyond me. He has no knowledge about anything and he's a lying sack of shit.
>>726465161lmao snoys utterly and irrevocably btfo
>>726468394>don't know why people still have faith in shitty living room boxesi love visiting /v/ every now and then and witnessing how disconnected from reality the average person here is, it's a delicacy of the internet.
>>726466837>its advertised as a hybridno it was advertised as a PC. in their site valve explicitly refers to it as a PC
>>726469189woah heavy hard r use there
>>726466837>hybridWhat the fuck does a 'hybrid' entail? Elaborate.
>>726469256
>>726469268>woah heavy hard r use thereYeah I know you'd like me to go hard r baby.
>>726465028>Valve say they’re biggest inspiration on hardware is Nintendo >Act surprised when they sell overpriced/underpowered hardware
>>726469509Nintendo sells low powered hardware because it's the only place you can get mario and co and have a "what you gunna do about it" attitude. The steam machine has literally no games. It's not inspired by nintendo at all.
>>726467091>just solder on a new bga cpuyoure a fucking retarded knuckledragging troglodyte and i hope you die forevert. electrical engineer
>>726470258People solder ram and cpu all the time.
>>726469790There are a bunch of games on steam that aren't on any other platform though
>>726466398>>726466296FSR4 is slower on RDNA3 but it still uplifts your frame rate compared to native 4K, fucking moron
>>726467091>You can. With a soldering iron.just say you cant and move onthe people that can are a rounding error in the amount of people that are going to buy it.which means you cant.retard
>>726470580no they dont>um well actually here is 1 guy doing itok now show me 400,000,000 other people doing it.
>>726470943>>726470986Its possible though and someone can offer a service where they charge to do it. Hell there are people on ebay doing it.
>>726465028>Linus "race mixing is good" Tech TipsI said this in a previous thread but we don't need anymore poorfags on PC so this is actually good.
>>726465028It's a cool product but, let's be real, who is it even for? If you have shitloads of games on steam you probably already have gayman pc. If you want a more portable PC laptops are better for that.So it's competing with consoles which have better specs while being, presumably, cheaper.
>>726471236yes and they charge out the ass for it cuz its fucking difficult to do and has a high upfront cost of having the correct>rework station>bga pattern samples>silicon that you can't get from the manufacturer willy nilly so you have to have a donor boardas i said previously, youre beyond retarded and are not worth any more (you)s. go die.
>>726471539Steam deck user who have it docked. This is an upgrade for them, also its not competing with console.
>>726471673Your the one who said the parts cant be replaced when it can.
>>726471539It's for undecided scared pussies that are also too lazy to browse through prebuilt pcs catalogue. It will fail to sell more than a one million i can guarantee that, especially with that over excessive price. Once normies will hear truth that "it's weaker than ps5 and also more expensive" it will be DOA. And i just hope it fails as Valve's greed should be stopped by a punch against their jewish face even if it's their first attempt to become like Nintendo.
>>726471852this is like the 5th thread where you whine about how the Gabecube is weaker than the PS5 when it isn't
If it costs 800-900usd, Unironically you're better off getting a laptop because the camera, keyboard, mic and screen come as full package.
>>726465096Playing games is the expensive part of a PC.
>>726466323I remember that that troon he used to host with.
>>726471929>camera>mic
>>726473291>troon out>no longer shows up in videos>ended up getting firedLinus is based?
>>726465028>>726465096Why people is thinking than the new PS6 will cost less than 800$?With a few times exclusives and paid online.
