>>727634462zoomies have an attention span of a goldfish, who knew?
Not enough porn edits
My switch 2 just showed up!
>>727634462zamn, the steam machine looks like THAT?
>Linux and ARM cpu so you can't install Windows on it.I wonder.
>>727634462what is there to post about it's not out
>>727634462(((Aislopers))) and their golems killed it
>retarded faggots thought this would kill consoles and be an easy win for Valve>it ends up costing more than a PS5 while being weakerThe 180 on this sure was funny
>>727634462>no price>RAM going apeshitUntil they finally reveal how much they want for it, there is no reason to remember it. If they secured a deal with a price before the shitstorm, then it will probably be the best value PC on the planet, if they didn't, it's doa.
>>727634462it's just a little prebuilt computer, most people already have faster pcs running linux
call me when they release the case cad files
>>727634704>arm cpu Fuck are you talking about
>>727634462AI is making ram prices sky rocket and that effects things
Well its not actually available or even priced so I think people are holding out since there was nothing new since release. That said, I'm a bit annoyed that it doesn't have a RDNA4 GPU or at least one compatible with FSR4 / Redstone. Still its a decent little faux-console, but I'd rather build my own PC so its not worth it for me. I'm more interested in Steam Controller and Frame.
>>727634462At first over $500 was too much, the under $700 was sweet music to everyones ears, now no one knows anymore WTF is going on.
Thanks, AI-bama
>>727634462Sam Altman.
>>727634462everyone cheers until they hear about the price tag
>>727634462Not out yet and jeets used up all their izzat to doompost the Steam Machine for clicks. We'll just have to wait until Valve shows the real, actual price and the performance benchmarks come out.
>>727635695Under $1000? I'm in heaven!
>>727635968we know exactly how it performs, it's off the shelf hardware and software
a PS5 pro is $650. its dead Jim
>>727636114Not for long. PS5 also uses ram so the prices will climb up soon.
Sorry gaben but got a pc instead.
>>727634462It hasn't released yet
>>727636225they use such a little amount of ram it's inconsequentialnot to mention the ps5 pro does not compete with the cube, it competes with used laptops and 2016 dell prebuilts
>>727634704Zen4 turned into ARM in this sperg's brain. Damn.
>>727635784 More like AI-bomination, lmao. Every tech rollout these days got some OpenMouth executive somewhere whispering sweet nothingburgers while your RAM doubles in price overnight. I miss when hardware launches didn’t feel like stock market events with extra schizo sprinkled on top.
>>727636424>ps5 doesn't have competition with anything outside of old pre-built pcs nowgrim. so phuccen grim.
>>727636583they opted for a half decent albeit low clocked cpu then gimped it with high latency ramit's not as bad as the ps4 at leastthat thing was pentium 4 tier (the benchmarks are publicly available do not argue with me)
>>727636225It's eventually going to trickle down to almost every electronic. Cars, routers, phones, washing machines, it's all fucked.
>>727636732No I just meant to say that the market is so fucked because xbox shit the bed and I'm just reminiscing on good times right now lad.
>>727634462We'll be lucky if this thing retails for under $1000 and it's weaker than a PS5. You're better off building your own PC and putting steam OS (or not) on it... that's what happened.
>>727636962Don't mind me I have difficulties
>>727634462Same issue with every single console these days, expensive, not launching with any new games
>>727634462Unless it is $500 I literary give no fucks about it.
>>727634462just not a good value without being heavily subsidized. its fine for non demanding 1080p but ps6 and next xbox will be out in a few more years and will shit on it hard and devs are going to start focusing on specs thats a gimped 6600 like the gabecube uses wont be able to handle well
>>727634462would anyone realistically get a set of face plate emotions in this style for their steam machine?
>>727634462AI crisis kicked off
>>727634462>People get excited at the idea of a Steam console>Steam comes out and says it's a PC, not a console>Specs come out>People start figuring out that you'll be able to make your own PC for less right now>PC community starts to laugh at the idea of the Steam Machine as being an over-priced mid-spec PC>Gabe's personal dicksuckers that he has on his yacht start coping by saying that current PC players aren't the real target audience
$800
>>727636323was the 7900xtx even discounted?it's a bad deal compared to the 9070xt
GaBeN should've put effort into making fucking games instead of shit which costs 2x but has the 1/2 performance of his ops.
>>727634462literally nothing has happened since the announcementtypical valve silence
I'm gonna cum in that thing.
>>727638173fuck off retard, the ramifications of valve's hardware on linux are way more important than valve's mediocre IPs
>>727634462You don't get it you HAAAAVE to talk about a thing CONSTANTLY up until it releases or it's forgotten and irrelevant!!!!!!!
>>727634462Cope huffing dipshits finally got it through their heads this shit isn't happening under $800
>>727636323Share cart and total
>>727638478Yes. That is correct
>>727638284You are even more of a fucking retard if you think Steam OS will be the comming messiah of linux gaming when GaBeN himself keep telling you it. won't. happen. with. this. OS. because he wants that os only run his machines.
>>727638610retardi don't give a shit about steamos and you're fucking clueless, it's a completely unexceptional distrothe ramifications of higher linux usage and its entry into normie spaces is what's great about this
>>727634462All the hype and talk about this shit ended overnight instantly the day the "priced more like a PC than a console" quote came out
>>727634462What's there to talk about? We don't know the price and it's not even close to being out yet.Would having a new thread about it every 2 minutes make you feel better?
>>727634527I feel bad for Valve. Literally a few weeks after they announced that thing all that ram shit happened. I was interested in that thing too, it would be a perfect system for the living room. Now it will either get delayed or cost like 200 bucks more.
>>727638173you have to drop $$$$ to get double the performance of the cube, 98x3d+9070
>>727638284Any day now troonix sisters! Our busted garbage desktop OS I spend 40 minutes fixing every night will finally take over the world, just another 490 years at this pace!
>>727638959>cost like 200 bucks more.Anon have you not seen the ram prices already?It'll be far more than 200 extra by the time this thing comes out
>>727639229no one's forcing you to switch, why so butthurt? is it because there's absolutely nothing to praise about modern windows?
>>727635386>it's not an arm cpudamn, that actually really kills a lot of the excitement i had for the thing, i thought valve was actually being truly revolutionary with it but i guess it's only the frame that they're using arm in, lame shiti guess that would explain why the gabecube is 90% heatsink, what a shame
>>727638582Only that, will reuse hard disks and psu the total was like $3000
>>727634462what's there to talk about?
>>727636114why would anyone pay 650 for a console with no games on it?
>>727637246It is not a console, it is a fun shaped PC, it has all the PC games.
>>727634462Vulva cumsole
>>727638959Valve would have secured supply contracts months ago, and they would be long-term contracts for uniform low-end parts. The rumor Valve had bought up a warehouse full of low-end hardware no one else wanted might be true and play out favorably.In any case they probably aren't going to suffer much with their 16+8GB Linux system. At least not compared to what a minimum spec Windows 11 PC is going to cost next year.
>>727640523I hope you are right, but I am still worried.
>>727634462Weaker than a Series S, more expensive than a PS5 Pro.
>>727640875series s>1280 rdna2 coressteam machine>1792 rdna3 cores
>>727641336>muh gpu does not matter in the age of upscalingwhat matters is the cpuyou want as low clock speed, as little cache and as high memory latency as possible for the most authentic 24 fps cinematic experience
>>727641648>muh fake frames and fake resolutionsi play real games, so input delay matters, frame rendering delay matters, frames being fake and gay mattersbut i'm sure if you're some kind of fag playing historia universalis or whatever the fuck gay ass 4x turn based niggershit, then all that gay ass fake frames fake resolutions high input latency/rendering delay shit is fine for you, but it isn't anywhere near acceptable for me
>>727642289he's not being serious anonalso you make me look stupid
>>727640343Still needs to launch with an included game
>>727634462I wouldn't be surprised if valve canceled it after all the ram and ssd fuckeryThe market is completely fucked
it's going to be $1200 because of the ram shit thought it was going to be $999 but nah that's impossible
>>727643219they're not paying for it anywhere near as much as regular customergetting those chips by the kilogram as a corporate entity is way cheaper and easier than you getting a ram stick
>>727643135you know Gabe has enough cashflow to make his own ram and shit I wouldnt be surprised if within the next year he finds Chinese company to partner with
>>727643616>has enough cashflow to make his own ramThat's... not even remotely how this works anon
>>727634462no hlaf lief
>>727643616anon i don't think you understand how ridiculously fucking expensive it is to start from scratch on manufacturing computer components like rammicrosoft, amazon, google, you think they're just too lazy to make their own ram? no, it's too fucking expensive
>>727634705giwtwm
>>727634462It's competing against windows 11 systems for people who need to upgrade, due to windows 10 now being unsupported. I think it'll still do fine if it's still around the same price as other pcs of similar spec
>>727644518not reallyanyone on 10 can just upgrade by grabbing an amd gpu and installing bazzitethis might be a decent upgrade to laptop cucks, this thing is on par with a mobile 5070
>>727644357>halal leif ericson
>>727644867anon most people have a hard time with winrar/7zip, had this been 10-15 years ago I would agree that yes the average pc gamer could in fact do as you say, but by god have people became retarded.They just need to secure a few million sales like they did with the steam deck for this to be considered a success.
