Time travel to December 2025

i mean, aren't there prebuilt gaming PCs for around the same price that run better even if they're not compact? Isn't that partly why people are criticizing the price of this?

Eh. Prices kinda f***ed. Would suggest $1500 range now a days for a pre build

year of the linux desktop

shouldn't have announced it when they did lmao

Time to start mobile gaming

more than 1k?

i’ll sell you my ps4 for $800

i paid $2650 for something that is worth half that price beginning of this year because my pc bricked

do not buy any pc at the time just wait if you can

Honestly depends on what you want to play. You can emulate quite a bit on modern phones.

AI really robbed us of what could’ve been the greatest value for a console ever created. Is it time to start pulling these execs out of their home now?

IGN trying so hard to justify this not being a bad value when in the same video they show cyberpunk running at 14 fps at 4k

get your eyes used to 720p and anything will be fine

tbh this thing was never gonna be a 4k60fps machine they were relying heavily on fsr from jump lmao

works better as 1080p machine but 4k 60 fps is unfortunately the standard these days

So im watching the digital foundry review, this is even worse than a ps5/xsx in performance? What a mess of a release, shouldnt have left the drawing board

Believe it or not no lol

I was in the market for one before this was even announced. Could never find a good mix of size/price/power, pretty much every mini pc from the last few years compromises on one of those.

This would’ve been a slam dunk if they magically could’ve gotten the price around $500

Component prices are slowly coming down. It’s not impossible to build a way more powerful AM5 system for around $1100

Newegg had a 256k, 32gb DDR5 and a mobo for $500 yesterday in a bundle. Slap a 1tb ssd and a 9070/9060xt in there and you have a great build

Ps5 pro owners won

Just get a PS5 Pro and call it a day tbh.

Handheld + egpu

pc gaming is such a scam and this is really the result of it

steam machine is 100% not worth it either. well idk what is anymore at these prices, i built my pc a long time ago. but it's weak as f*** and outdated

it's really not at all, random ass take. the slopocalypse is affecting the prices of everything including proprietary consoles. locked down hardware is an actual scam if anything
