French retailer LDLC is making fun of Valve’s new Steam Machine by launching its own gaming PC called the PC STIM. For €999 (€1,039 if pre-built), the PC STIM includes: - AMD Ryzen 5 8400F processor - Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB graphics card - 16GB DDR5 RAM - 500GB NVMe SSD Standard PC parts that can be upgraded later. LDLC says that for about the same price as Valve’s Steam Machine, buyers can get a gaming PC with better graphics performance and the freedom to upgrade the hardware in the future.

@LordSmap @EvilCirno @Sorb3tStan Also you are forgetting that that cpu and gpu in the cube are leftover bins from last generation. Valve is getting them dirt cheap.

@EvilCirno @Sorb3tStan Hahahaha. That is one of the silliest copes I have ever heard. It is an objectively overpriced underpowered device. It is okay if you just want it for the vibes but it is not fairly priced. Gtfo

Valve has quietly reached an important milestone for its upcoming Steam Machine. The device was recently added to the official Vulkan 1.4 conformant products list from the Khronos Group, which means the hardware and graphics stack successfully passed official compatibility testing. According to the listing, the system uses an AMD Navi 33 GPU with the open-source RADV graphics driver, alongside a custom AMD processor. It also runs Valve’s custom Linux-based “Neptune” operating system built on Linux 6.16. This kind of certification usually happens relatively late when is about to launch

The real constraint isn't the old hardware, it's the old hardware being power constrained due to various reasons. Maybe if they opted for liquid metel instead of traditional thermal paste they could get more performance out of their cooling solution which would allow the CPU draw more power which would lead to better performance.

@LordSmap @ultradereks What is very uncommon and unprecedented is the AI insanity driving the price of aging tech UP. Nobody would complain about the tech being a few years behind if the price went down year over year as it used to be the case. The entire consumer PC market is in a dire situation.

Steam Machine was announced. The specs looked meh. 6 cores, rx7600 8gb gddr6. Techtube gets super hyped. People in the comments are all hyped. I point out specs in comments. Replies be like “nah bro, they will optimize the games for the steam deck.” Ram and ssds skyrocket in price. People are worried about the cost. Steam deck gets released. Performs as speced. People lose their freakin minds. “I can’t believe it performs like how it’s speced!!” “It’s such a rip off. I can build the exact same computer for around 50 dollars less!” Am I taking crazy pills?

@grok @EzhmaarSul @TenseMountainTX @sophieraiin you are mistaken and the sources you referenced are mistaken. He was at an intersection just outside the capital grounds. It's due to him not being on the capital grounds that he wasn't charged for trespassing

Nick Fuentes **was** on the Capitol grounds on Jan 6. The House Select Committee stated he and Patrick Casey "were present on the Capitol grounds." Video shows him with a bullhorn near the Peace Monument (right by the Capitol) urging the crowd to advance, break barriers, and disregard police. He didn't enter the building and faced no charges. Claims he was only at some unrelated street corner don't match the record.

It's actually very common for the technology in these types of machines to be outdated at launch primarily due to the long development cycle. When the PS5 launched it launched with hardware that was almost 2 years old at the time. The switch 2 launched with hardware that was 4 years old. It's really only PC's with off the shelf parts that can be bought with the newest consumer technology. Even newly released laptops trail behind desktop PC's by about a year. The steam mechine is essentially laptop hardware in a console form facter running desktop software.

@ultradereks The problem is that Valve took too long to deliver hardware they spec'ed in 2023 which is basically equivalent to a 4 year old laptop now, add to that the memory and storage price hikes making the thing cost over 1k without even including a controller. Bad timing and bad price.

Can someone much smarter than me please explain why you'd purchase a Steam Machine instead of a PC or Console?

@LordSmap @plumbwane @troy0h1 @ChasersFrame You know that's the most surface level description ever right? They don't write the full specs for normies like you. Check all the 6 core 30w laptop zen 4 cpus amd has released the past few years and you'll find the exact model the steam machine uses. Its just 2 full cores.

Why should they subsidize it when it's not a locked platform? What if you buy it and install a different os on it and buy games through a different storefront. Consoles are subsidized because their's a garentee that the price will get made up through the cut that's taken from game sales.

@VideoCardz The 1k price is pure insanity for the amount of compute the machine gives. They should have subsidized it. ~$700 with controller would be fair price. 1k with no controller and 16gb RAM / 512gb SSD is just way too much. I know we live in the horrible RAM/SSD timeline but still.

@clanka9000 @ShitpostRock exactly, the pricing is full blown retarded. they should be priced waaay lower to be competitive. i built a mini pc with external gpu for cheaper and it out performs a ps5 pro, if its priced above ps5 pro, it HAS to be better, not worse. thats just dumb.
