Are you buying the steam machine?
>>741799874I wish Linus was intelligent enough to figure out how the scaling options work on SteamOS. but alas, he’s retarded
>>741799874Nope
>>741799874>watch his steam machine video>this faggot has rainbow braces and is slurring every word
>>741799874Nah don't need one
>>741799874The problem is that this POS costs over $1000, but even still, just turn the settings down nigger.
>>741799874Some absolute nig on this board said he was playing forza 6 on his steam deck
>>741800114His teeth didn't even look that bad before. I had a friend who also got braces again in adulthood because he felt he needed them (he didn't). And the dentists tried to keep him in braces as long as possible. I kept telling him they were just taking him on a ride and his teeth were fine before that but he didn't want to listen. Ended up wearing them for almost two years straight until he finally got the idea that they were just playing him and had them take it off.
I shall not.
>>741799874Nah. I'm going to spend that same amount and build a PC instead.
>>741799997that's the average person. retards take advice from a retard, and the system perpetuates.
>>741800457Yeah never once thought Linus needed braces, was surprised when I saw him in them though to be fair you can get braces for jaw disorders and shit and not just straight teeth. I have TMJ disorder and it fucking sucks but can't afford to fix it since my dental insurance is pretty shit.
>>741799997or maybe, just maybe this clip was specifically edited to omit him looking at the settings
Maybe
>>741799874I already own a pc that can play most things at 60 fps and not terrible graphic settings. Why should i bother with the steam machine? Is this just PC gaming for people that don't want to bother with PCs? Isn't that just Xbox?
>>741799997at $1049, you should expect to NOT use fake ai scaling solutions.
>>741800650pretty sure hes been wearing invisalign for like 10 years on top thishe clearly just has some weird dysphoria about his teeth/jawline
>>741799874I might, I don't use my ps5 and since gabecube is SFF it will fit nicely in my living room. For anything more demanding I'll stream it from my main PC, same as I did for my 'eck.Price is rather ridiculous but that's the reality we're in and we're not going back. At least I have my library so I'm sorted on games.
If I had a nickel for every time some PC FAT shit-talked the series s for 'holding back next gen gaming' because it's a series x that only does 1080p, I'd be rich. Got it on sale for $250 years and it was the best investment I've ever made. Can't wait to play gta 6 in October.
Ill sign up for the orders and see how i feel when the email goes out. I really just want the frame.
>>741799874yes, to scalp it to valve drones.
Anyone over the age of 12 should never wear a cap indoors. Just thought you should know. Thanks for looking.
>>741801089You're supposed to wear a retainer for life after you get your braces removed. Or at least that's what the dentist will tell you. I haven't worn my retainer in 6 years and my teeth still look fine.
>>741799874I'm an actual retard who's only redeeming quality is that I have money, so I think I have to? The alternative, try to build a PC with my retarded brain, especially with current prices I would 100% fuck it up and end up spending more to make something worse.
>>741801253I'm balding and it's cold indoors.
should have had proper tongue placement for your teeth as a child retardsdentist always ask if i had braces
Why would anyone buy a steam machine?
>>741801492w-why are all those parts free
>>741801021>/a/retardnot that I disagree when it comes to twitter faggotry
>nooooo its $1000 and cant run modern games at ultra settingsneither can a $1000 PC you piece together. Prices are absurdly high, just turn down the graphics retards
>>741803447Yea but my $1000 PC can run games at higher settings and framerates than the 'ube
>>741801492Now add the cost of RAM and an SSD retard, and get it all in a mini-ITX case with cooling as good as the machine.>>741803625Your frame of reference is off, you did not put your $1000 PC together using todays prices for parts.
>>741803716>RAM and SSDThat is included in the bundle. $581 for mobo, SSD, RAM, CPU and cooler. You can buy it RIGHT NOW. On newegghttps://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails?ItemList=Combo.4874532>minitix>muh form factorSo this is the only cope steamies have, their form factor. They really think a $400 parts performing PC that is equivalent to a shitty ryzen 5500 and rx 6600 is worth over $1300 just because its a LE CUBE LMAO?!
>>741801492because i have a lot of money and want one
>>741799874>let me show you how easily it works>immediately showcases a new game that literally does not work>but that's ok, it's to be expectedi cannot tell you how much i despise gabe nuthuggers
>>741801492so if I spend $1500 - $2000 I can get a better PC than spending $1300 on a gabe cube, woah....
>>741803964He was shitting on it dude.
>>741801492>>741803881holy molysteam machinies in shambles rn
>>741800595>retards take advice from a retard and come here trying to act like they are smartthat's the problem.
>>741799874maybe if it cost half
Doesn't matter they'll be backed up fulfilling orders 3 years out
>>741801073Sadly, at $1049 (the price of a PS5), that's all you can hope to do.
>>741801492>B-B-BUT MUH VALVE ISNT GREEDY THEY ARE JUST DOWN BECAUSE OF MUH POOR AI MAKING THEM RAISE PRICES! ITS SAM ALTMAN AND EVIL JENSEN TECH AI OVERLORDS!>ERM WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN BUILD A PC AT MARKET PRICE FOR CHEAPER AND 2.5-3X MORE POWERFUL?!>VALVES TOTALLY NOT SCAMMING US THOUGH! THEY TOTALLY AREN'T TRYING TO OFFLOAD THEIR SHITTY PC PART BAGS THEY BOUGHT ON CONSUMERS!>THEY'RE THE GOOD GUYS BROS!
>>741799874no because i would rather put the $1k to a custom build
>>741799874Trying to get a license and a BMW this year to fuck more white women So, no.
>>741799874no. I'm not really into video games.
I am getting one for my gf to play games with meshould I get the 512gb one and just use a microsd card for most games, saving the 512gb for AAA ones?or shell out for the 2tb one? I already have a steam controller but might get the bundle with a controller for an extraHow is gaming off a microsd card>inb4 build oneits for my gf, it needs to be some simple shit she just turns on and can play games immediately like a console. It being small and cute and customizable is also plus for her.
>>741799997>hear he's the most popular tech youtuber>watch him with expectations>nigger didn't even touch Linux until a year or two ago>struggled to even copy and paste a document on bazziteHe seems less like he knows technology from a master's perspective and more like he just knows the consumer product market with good enough tech skills. I stopped listening to the WAN show because its half AI speculation and half product discussion, including their own brands.
>>741801492>1371+581 = $1952>1121+581 = $1702>that is before taxes and shipping>cube = $1050what is the point you are trying to make here, if you spend hundreds of dollars more you get a better product? no shit
>>741799874>modest hardwarethat is not what every shred of their marketing said
>>741805019I am not a rocket scientist or brain surgeon nor am I a jeopardy champion. yet I know more about computers and technology than the professional tech reviewer. utterly bizarre
>>741805176>>1371+581 = $1952>>1121+581 = $1702where the hell are you pulling that from
>>741805329it makes sense if you think about it. The average consumer is a retard so they should watch a retard reviewer to get a similar perspective.
>>741799874I'd rather upgrade my warhead, but his talk of "modest hardware" is nothing but engagement bait - 16/8 can run anything, doesn't matter if it came out yesterday, on Very High AT LEAST.
>>741806101that’s all well and good but I seriously quote hoping to see a single One (1) review of the steam machine discuss and or analyze the machine’s scaling options. not a single one has. not even df.
>>741799874wow, it just works :)
Somewhat related question, is AM4/DDR4 still good enough for games? A friend of mine saw the Steam machine's price and asked me if I could buy a similar machine for less money.
>>741799874No, im running bazzite with a 9070xt, there is zero point in buying one.
>>741808312yes it's good enough at least now. although best game am4 processors are kind of unicorns. stopped manufacturing fast to get more people into am5. china 5500x3d is probably cheapest and even that costs like 200+ but it's only 6 cores
>>741808312absolutely. Now granted, I never use ray tracing on my 3070 but even with 16GB of DDR4 was just fine.
