Sure, for triple the price. Steam Machine's draw here is that it will likely be around PS5, possibly PS5 Pro level performance for around the same price (they said entry level gaming PC, so I'm guessing base price around 600).
Also, kudos for GabeCube, perfect nickname
Triple the price? The fuck are you talking about?
Gaming-oriented mini PCs match the PS5 performance around $300. Around $600-800 you'll even get dedicated (albeit mobile) GPUs.
I don't think so.
Fortunately, "I don't think so" is not a legitimate argument, so off you feck.
Ok then how about "no it's not". You're the one making the claim, I don't have to prove anything.
Let's see that PS5 level hardware for $300. Should be easy then, right?
