$2849.99
>>736862373I am scared. >_>
>>736862373Fuck poorfags
>>736862373samsung foldable phones cost that much.if this thing is more powerful and optimized for gaming, why wouldnt it cost as much?
lol
>>736862373What a piece of junk, not even for free
>>736862992Kek
>>736862373They have great laps but this Is dumb
>>736862373what the actual fuck
>>736862373Nobody cares Nobody asked
Hardware prices are getting to the point you have to wonder are there even enough people in the world with that kind of disposible income for it to even make sense to produce something like that. Like how big is the market for "dudes who have $3000 to blow on a bigger and vastly more expensive switch/deck"
>>736862373>Buy cheaper from another retailer before they adjust the priceEZ
>>736863850It's gonna collapse
DROP THE PRICE
>>736863894And then the inevitable "we have no choice but to only offer cloud pc rental subscriptions instead of actual hardware".
>>736863850the market will stabilize, the one thing about hardware is that it typically lasts 5-10 years which means gamers can withhold upgrading if the prices aren't favorable, it's not critical to have the latest hardware to play games so the demand shouldn't be high given enough time with high prices that should cause discounts with excess product on shelves that need to move to make quarterly earnings reports
>>736864134>the market will stabilize
>>736862373Your Switch 2 competitor, ladies and gentlemen lmao
>>736862373why even sell it at this price, just keep it in the warehouse until component prices drops
>>736864228>until component prices drops
>>736864037They have no game's you can't have a subscription service with 10 game released a year.Most people can play the 3 games they actually want in 1 month of subscription.
Video games are fun if you haven't had to buy anything in the last 1.5 years. Praying to God my PC or Steam Deck don't explode on me, I'll go bankrupt trying to fix it
>>736864330Subscribing to the pc hardware itself, not a games service.
>$244Retroid, I kneel.
can't wait for prices to go back to normal.they will go down? right?
>>736863850>>736864228They'd rather sell 0 at 2+k than 5 million at 1k. Because hardware doesn't fall from the sky and prices aren't just going up because they think it's funny, you bug type Pokémon.
>>736862845>gay>AI>defending price hikesYep its curry time.
>>736862845foldable phones do not have anything to offer over a normal phone, aside from a bigger screen with a noticeable crease down the middle
>>736862373This is what we voted for.
>Yeah so the PS6 portable will be like $500 or something
>>736865004
>>736863026Are they stupid? This will flop harder than frogs can say le fromage!
>>736862373Stop being poor.
>>736864750>aside from a bigger screen only when you want ityes, that's the appeal.and the crease gets more negligible with each new edition. the latest one is already completely unnoticeable in use.
>>736864613>Yep its curry time.kek
>>736865004>>736865004>Yeah so the PS6 portable will be like $500 or something
>>736864503Watch the news retard.>>736864037the poors will just finance high end consumer electronics in the future.Renting doesn't really make sense, these things have no real value on the secondary market.
>>736862373For that amount of money you can build something with a 9800x3d + 5070ti + 32gb of cl30 + 2tb gen 5 nvme even with the current fucked up prices. Hell, if you don't go for fancy cases and coolers you can probably get a 5080.
>>7368623733K for a handheld lul
Stop being poor
>>736868851Maybe in 2024 but not anymore
>>736862373Imagine seeing what's going on with PC handhelds and then thinking>PS6 Portable will be $499. Trust me bro! Sony will subsidize it in the hundreds!
>>736869287>Nintendo can subsidize their handhelds for hundreds, but not SonyAlright, Magatard.
>>736869287Different markets man, obviously the PS handheld is going to outsell every PC handheld on the market day one regardless of price and they're competing with the Switch 2, while I agree $500 MSRP is preposterous they need to be about $200 of the Switch 2 to be successful.I'm thinking Switch 2 will be around $650 by 2027 so PS6 will be about $850 in the US and a cool $1000 elsewhere.
>>736869110>You can buy a good gaming laptop for the price of a single gpuWild times. Not that long ago having a gaming laptop was considered a luxury and a gaming PC was the poorfag option.
>>736864750>>736864613he's not wrong thoughmind you, you'd be retarded to buy this shit over a steam deck at this price (no matter how better it turns out to be), but the current consumerist culture shows that these niggers are totally fine with price hiking all the time, even if it takes you personally out of the market pool; does it mean they'll lose money over the decision?probably noteveryone was shitting on the switch 2 for a while and at the end of the day, they still sold that shit like christmas cake, people are retarded and whining about the companies hiking their prices is stupid when the only reason they're doing it is because it works
>>736869110Why exactly are there different version of the same card? What makes them different?
>>736870027OEMs all make their own enclosures. Basically no difference besides thermals. Sometimes there can be different versions of a card where on gets jewed on vram and that’s really what you have to watch out for.
>>736869816Having a gaming laptop will always make you a faggot.
>>736862373You're borderline retarded if you skip out on a Switch 2 OLED, PS6 Canis, and Steam Deck 2 for this.
>>736869816that has never been the case
>>736863662The thinkpads have been largely dogshit since like the P50.
>>736862420I feel like you would be better off spending that much money on something like a z13 Flow.
>>736872734Fuck handhelds
>>736875925Fuck you, I'm tired of TV boxes and desktops. Microsoft burned me out, plus I like convenience.
>>736864134>gamers can withhold upgradingWhat if I've already been withholding 5-10 years??It feels like this shit will never resolve. In the past you could buy a decent PC for 500-1000 euros. Then 1000 became just the starting price. And currently 1000 will get you NOTHING. It's fucking insane.
>>736877738buy high sell low
>>736862373lolhow much is a Steam deck?also, how much better is it than a Steam deck?
>>736864502How do they do it?
>>736880898
>>736869196$550 for the ram, $900 for the gpu, $400 for the x3d, $250 to $300 for the nvme.That's $2150 if we count the nvme at $300. You're left with $700 for motherboard + case + cooling since the legion is at $2850.Definitely doable.
>>736862373You get what you pay for, and gets a bit more once you install linux on it
I have a $400 gaming PC with an RX6600, 16GB DDR4 and a 12th gen i3What games am I unable to run?
>>736880898workers rights and safety do not exist
Yup, this is why the Switch 2 is winning.
>>736864502>$244Wtf? This shit was like $200 not long ago
>>736864134There's a chance that the market collapses instead and cloud gaming is forced upon the plebs that can't afford actual hardware.
>>736877738God tells me to buy stuff and I listen instead of waiting. My lord blesses me with beating the market every time. Bless you.
>>736881756change to 7800 x3d and you can play most games except the newer ones which are all very gay anyway
>>736864037May they go bankrupt.
Welp, time to go outside and get fit.
>>736862373based nvidia and trump
>>736862373How much is a gpd 5? Also, the ayaneo were apparently cheaper but are now sold out.
>>736869110i have the aorus master, but i paid like 3k for it
>>736862373Now you have a(nother) taste of how it feels to be a thirdie. Godspeed, Burguers.
>>736882579wut?I'm not going to buy it
>>736882601Exactly. You won't, that's the spirit.
>>736882579>third worlder thinks this is the only thing we can buyjesus fuck giving you fucks internet access is one of the worst crimes in the world
>>736862373The controller on the right looks like a dildo in the thumbnail
>>736882641i already have a steam deck though albeit so why would i buy this?
>>736872734My Steam Deck gives me access to just about any game worth playing.
>>736881756you can play every single game worth playing
>>736882756no it doesn't
>>736882726I don't know, but you guys used to buy all sorts of junk back in the day just because you could.
>>736882786no they can't
>>736862373pffffthahahah fucking lmaodo they think anyone will pay that? My entire desktop computer cost less than that
>>736869363Nintendo's not subsidizing shit when it first came out the BoM was like $300. They never sell hardware at a loss, a price increase is a matter of when, not if.
>>736869816>a good gaming laptopLol. Lmao even. There's no such thing as a good gaming laptop, only 80IQ subhumans, third worlders and dumb kids with rich parents buy such things.
>>736869964>does it mean they'll lose money over the decision? probably notactually, having sat in with the types of people who are making these pricing decisions, they absolutely do not give a fuck about finding the right price point for the product. Many of them are too stupid to even understand the (very basic) math involved.They LITERALLY think "we will make more because the product costs more" and they respond to lagging sales by increasing the price bit by bit to make up for the shortfall, instead of trying to figure out where the actual sweet spot in the price curve is for them.to put this in super stupid:They are fucking themselves over and making less money because they are genuinely not a joke that retardedevery company has been enshittified with fucking morons now
>>736881994It includes blowjobs from chinese immortal beauties, princesses and fairies.>>736882672You can always give your money to Israel, or McDonald's (part of profits goes to Israel too). God bless America.
prices going high no gamesmore digital than everstudios produce one or 2 games by generationmore censoring because think of the childreni feel more like reading books than ever
this shit is worse than the xbox ally x, what are they smoking
>>736881756I have a 6600 XT and I'm pretty sure I can play everything if I don't go past medium preset. I have a 1440p display.
>>736862373That amount of money can buy a used car.
>>736883432NOOOO you cant enjoy new games without pathtracing Oled quantum dot at 360hz
>>736883757I know you're joking but one game I play legit looks dogshit on medium textures and it crashes if it uses anything close to it's 8gb vram because of the mod I'm using. I might upgrade to a 9060 XT 16 GB just because of that.
>ITT people who have seen a chinese website beforeLenovo list the price of everything on their site at insanely inflated values so they can have perpetual "sales" at the regular price everyone else is selling
>>736883975The 1 tb is $1999 at best buy.
>>736883906mmm to what extent could be consider plausible jump to new hardware, i mean, just for one game i would certainly not do it...
>>736862373>$3k to play PC games at low settings on a tablet
>>736884216What? no, you can use high**DLSSFSRXESSOpped as fuck
>>736884208Hard to say, but it's tempting me. It's not like other games won't improve as well since 8 GB VRAM is on the minimum side for QHD.
>its temptingwell your actually not wrong, for 1440 and 8gb your at the edge, few more years and you will likely run almost nothing at decent graphics
>>736862373is it even legal for them to steal the switch design this blatantly?
>>736884946Yes.Otherwise it would be a slippery slope where you get sued by nintendo for doing a device with buttons and a screen.
>>736884946yeah, nintendo only has a patent for the tech inside the joycons, not the joycons themselves
>>736862373stadians...
>>736881756Getting myself a budget pc with ddr3 ram, 2012 mobo and i7 7k series, but a 5050 made me truly understand the unnecessarity of a mobo, ram and cpu aslong you have gpu and sd you're fine
>>736869964There are no steam decks left redditkun
