are there literally any handheld gaming pcs that are worth it?
>>741155585nope, the ones that can run games are too expensive and the weak retro emulation focused ones are not worth it. If a hacked second hand switch lite could run linux it would be the best option.
>>741155585only for placing icks on them
>>741155585also msi hasn't released a bios update for intel gen 13 processors yet so I still get the popup every time I open wow.
>>741155734>>741155856>>741155784bummer. i wanted one for some long haul flights i have coming up. steam deck oled is now incredibly overpriced for how old it is.the new intel-powered ones look cool and xess looks great, but it looks like theyre going to be like $1600+
>>741155585I just want something I can use as a ps2 and GameCube emulator to take on the go.The steam deck was gonna be my option but I missed out on that
>>741156017I have legion go and i don't regret buying it but it is in a weird position where it can't really hit 60 fps reliably for 3D games. We probably need 2 more gens for something that can handle most 3d games
>>741155585Do any of them rip off the switch and have detachable controllers?
>>741155585Right now, not really. At least in the x86 realm.>>741156184Chinkhelds are good enough for that. Odin 3 Pro/Max if you have money to burn.
>>741155585No the APU hardware releases too fast to even justify spending thousands on piece of shit, you're paying to fund their R&D and test these for them.
I ended up getting a full spec GPD WIN mini for like 700 bucks new back in 2024, and that was worth it for me. Outside of that, you're better off continuing to wait for APUs to mature and RAM prices to fall.
>>741155585Nothing in the world is worth it anymore. Fucking nothing. Everything is shit now. There's nothing left.
>>741155585whichever one has longer than 4 hour battery life and is under 500 buckslooks like pc gaming is for complying nazis now aka normies
I rented out my vacation home and bought an Oled steam deck, it's pretty good for most games I play including emulation
I want to get the $600 xbox ally. I just want to lay in bed and play games.
>>741155585No because handhelds are shit.Play on a desktop like normal gamers.
>>741156378>Odin 3 Pro/MaxI'll check it out. Can it be connected to a monitor like a switch?
>>741157614Yeah, but only at 60fps max.
>>741157161Imagine sitting at a desk on your free time like a fucking turdworlder
>>741155585They are worth it if you aren't expecting 60fps with raytracing on and graphics set to ultra in UE5 games.
>>741158312>he has "free time">all of his time isn't already freeCheck out this wagie lmao
>>741155585The only real option the rest is gay
