Oh come on. If they sell an 8gb of ram machine that is gimped from playing like a 3rd of games because of Linux for $1000 they are out of their fucking minds.
You can get a refurbished 4070 laptop for that amount of money, which would be a drastically more practical purchase.
For a little more you could get a 4070 desktop with 12gb of vram
If this thing isn't cheaper than a PS5, then I don't understand who the hell it's for.
The more I read about this, the more blatantly clear it is that it's going to face plant.
I just cannot believe steam, the PC game company, is releasing a non portable console that has less VRAM than the fucking switch 2
Who is?
There is zero market for an underpowered "PC" console with less VRAM than literally every other current console including switch 2 that is gimped from half of PC games by Linux.
This thing just does not make any sense
Unless they reveal a huge list of exclusives, this is dead in the water.
