THIS IS THE VALVE SHITCUBE

but does it have a handle and is it durable enough to use as a blunt force weapon?

>>725653663
It's the easiest way to push Linux gaming forward. Instead of having to accommodate every possible hardware configuration you target a couple of very specific pieces of hardware that you control, that come with an OS that you also control. Not only are there less compatibility issues, but this makes it easier for game developers to target your platform since it's like a console, if it works on one unit it'll work on all of them.
Their endgame is being totally independent instead of having to suck the Microdick.

WTF IS THAT THING, ITS OVER FOR WOKELVE

And da reason... I call it the valve shitcube...
Is because..
ITS A PIECE OF FUCKIN SHIT!

>>725653398 (OP)
I wonder what they did to support HDMI 2.0. You cannot support HDMI 2.0 on Linux with open source drivers on AMD cards. The HDMI Org does not allow you to. NVIDIA and Intel have their HDMI implementations in the firmware.
Does this have closed sourced drivers? Does it have a DP to HDMI chip in it?

>>725653398 (OP)
specs are so lame. It's about the same as a PS5 + unoptimized PC games... This is gonna be another disaster, at least for playing current gen games.

>>725657604
He did though. I was there and I remember him saying so.

>>725657634
No pricing until next year. TL - it will be high.

>>725657634
They said "entry level PC price" and "not priced like a console" so probably $800+.

>>725657634
I don't believe you also we don't know yet.

Someone wasn't a child stuck with a Wii in 2008. It's a life that has to be seen to be fucking believed. Opera browser via Wiimote, those were some kind of days.

I might be interested if they can keep it under $500. The specs don't look very future proofed though, and I can see this struggling to run games that come out in 2027.

>>725653462
Hey that's my desktop's GPU :)

>>725658892
Not at this point, and arguably not at any point in the past two decades. "entry level" GPUs cost that much nowadays.

>>725658906
The GPU has less CUs than the 7600. It's a 1080p machine.

>>725656828
It said 4K with FSR.
Which is curious when is AMD releasing the Lite version of FSR4, because it's RDNA3

Dot dot dot

>8gb
>RDNA 3

Disaster waiting to happen. No FSR 4 ans future AI tech because it doesn't have the hardware, or it'll get a back ported shit version which runs like shit anyway. I'm assuming they're using dead hardware like this because of cost, but it just means the next gen xbox will be light years ahead but probably worth it for the better hardware.

>Not purple
>No carrying handle

>>725659253
Entry level PC and entry level gaming PC are two different things, and depending on your expectations on what entry level gaming is you could maybe still get away with it, an AMD APU is capable enough for light gaming at 1080p so you don't really need a dedicated GPU.

>>725659376
I want it fail just for assaulting my eyes with this kind of trash.

>>725653398 (OP)
someone calculate many times more powerful it is than a steam deck

Suddenly people will says 8GB of VRAM is enough

>>725656254
It should run every PS5 game about as well, or maybe even better.
>16GB
Honestly, it should be fine on Linux. It's just that Windows is bloated into oblivion.

>>725659537
They're not targeting 1080p and they've already said it's not priced like a console. It's going to be expensive.

They only support 8-bit 4:4:4 chroma or something?

>>725653663
What do you suggest a multi-million company should do instead? Throw out lawsuits?

>>725659623
its actually 16gb+8gb

>>725659604
They'll start saying steamOS uses less vram or some bullshit

>>725653398 (OP)
Uh oh 5 o'clock! Time to pray!

hate me all you want but will this thing even be able to play shit like league or battlefield due to being linux os?

>>725659863
Yes, I know, it's just that on Windows 16GB of RAM isn't enough to play and browse the Internet simultaneously in every recent game.

>>725659415
Yeah, what probably happened was that this thing was developed and targeted at a 2022-2023 release, but the VR headset which uses an ARM CPU, wasn't ready for then. They wanted to do a simultaneous launch with everything fully featured so the box was delayed while the ARM translation layer was worked on. Years later it is ready but the hardware is laughably out of date, subject to tariffs and launching too close to next-gen consoles. DOA unless it's like $300.

>>725657456
>gabe has fallen.
AND HE CAN'T GET UP

>>725659665
Couldn't "not priced like a console" mean cheaper? I think it's DOA if it's more expensive because then you buy a PS5 instead, at least with the Steam Deck they had a completely different form factor to play it up, nobody's gonna pay $800+ for a weaker console.

>>725659959
Valve hopes it'll encourage anti-cheat devs to support Linux

>>725658527
the fact that it's only 8gb vram during 2026 that's meant for 4k monitors and tvs instead of a tiny 1080p display is actually far worse.

>>725660469
Linux doesn't shave off VRAM requirements. A lot of current gen games use up more than 12GB easily.

>>725653398 (OP)
They better fix the account system or make Family Sharing a lot more powerful. Right now, I can't play different games on my Steam Deck and PC simultaneously because I'll just get a dialog that will sign me out the other device. If this is something I'm meant to leave in my living room, they better let me play on multiple devices at the same time or let me have a second account that has access to my entire library.

>>725660621
>the fact that it's only 8gb vram during 2026 that's meant for 4k monitors and tvs instead of a tiny 1080p display is actually far worse.
And to make matters worse FSR4 runs like shit on RDNA3. FSR4 Performance actually looks great, unlike FSR3...

>>725653398 (OP)
why doesn't valve just release the steamos3 for pc

>>725660621
It's not meant for 4K. That 4K claim comes with a FSR asterisk attached. And since it's RDNA3, you're either forced to mod FSR4 in and get your hands dirty or deal with lower quality.

>>725660775
because their boss is out in the ocean fucking around instead of leaping on microsoft's throat after the unmitigated disaster that is w11

>>725660074
Liberals use it to sound folksy towards their favorite pocs. It's inauthentic.

>>725660775
>why doesn't valve just release the steamos3 for pc
It will be the version on the steam machine. It can't be the same version of the steam deck.

>>725660721
I've yet to find a game which maxes out my 3080 10gb at 4k or upscaled 4k, but its almost always over 8gb utilization. 8gb is dead in the water for high resolutions but they could've got away with it if they included an extra couple of modules to make 10gb.

The INT8 version is real. I'm 90% certain Valve is working with AMD to have FSR4 working out of the box on the Steam Machine.

>>725660775

>>725659376
>or turn it off
I appreciate that.

>>725660721
8GB should be enough for any current gen period. Consoles have just 16GB of shared RAM total, this has 24GB, any game that has troubles running on 8GB means that they made a shit job.
Unless you're talking about games that artificially bloat the VRAM requirements on ultra settings, since they increase texture streaming budget with no visible benefit, like every RE Engine game

>>725661026

>>725661342
That’s like saying America was white back then because native Americans are basically all gone are you stupid or just baiting you know the south was much whiter back then right ?

>>725661342

>>725661502
well I figured as much with the mecca and shit. Is it ties to the matrix and the cross being an unfolded cube?

>>725661123
Yes even RE Engine makes a difference in newer titles. MH Wilds actually has decent textures with the 4K pack, otherwise a lot of them are spotty (honestly kinda bad for 2025)

Even something like Diablo 4 High vs Ultra textures is night and day.

Nta but vram is used rendering things like textures and models. 8 gigs is "ok" for current gen but it is shit when you look at the exponential demand of new titles. We're going to hit 12 gigs recommended very soon and then valves shitbox will already be obsolete.

>>725653663
because consoles became PCs and if the rumors are true that the next Xbox will have a Steam launcher on it, Valve is merely pushing forward and eating Microsoft's lunch by giving an alternative as well as eating their dinner by pushing SteamOS as a viable option as well.

if you got the game off steam it'll just work on proton
might potentially take some work if it's an older 3d game
personally i literally just opened steam.sh in my steam folder on my new linux install and it just worked

It needs to be cheaper than the PS5 pro, then it can get somewhere, carried by its game library. Otherwise, it’s dead on arrival

Rumour has it that the next gen "xbox" from Microsoft will just be one of several options, with companies like lenovo, Asus and co filling in the price points below.

People make up other retarded reasons, but the real reason is 90% "because they can" and 10% "Linux and VR boosting".
Having dedicated linux hardware means they can offer developers a baseline they can meet for support on Linux devices, and the VR stuff is just Valve exploring other avenues of game development.

And there's the reason of 'turning fans into fanatics', like when Nintendo releases a nintendo alarm clock, or when Sony releases a PlayStation branded monitor.

Very excited for this DESU. This is tailor made for me, a casual who wants the PC gaming experience (mods and porn) but hates playing most games on the PC. All I ever wanted as a Deck with good TV connection and this is just that. Will have great emulation as well so it'll essentially be an all-in-one machine for me.
If it doesn't cost a trillion dollars I'll pick it up immediately. Looking forward to also ditching my gamer pc and investing on a smaller, more portable one for purely work/casual gaming with the boys.

They use it because it's gender neutral.

So this is just being made to soft launch SteamOS, right? So they can have plausible deniability of "Oh well, it was made for the Cube so it's not recommended to use it elsewhere." while also being extremely accessible for anybody to use and having a clear install guide 'just in case you need to reinstall it on your Cube'.
Incredibly clever, if that's the case. Anyway, time for all those "I'll switch if they release SteamOS"fags to take the plunge.

>>725653398 (OP)

>>725661143
I don't know about the fandom in other schizo/occult/rappers that believe anything communities, but according to one almost certainly fake occultist book I read:
Black Cube is the symbol of Saturn.
Worshiping Saturn and/or practicing magic invoking him actually works - if you know what you're doing.
He's a pretty malevolent entity that generally hates conscious beings and wants to cause disruption.
"Saturn" is a really a cross cultural mythological phenomenon that keeps appearing under different guises because, again, he's real and occultists notice. E.g. the demiurge, Shani, other vaguely satanic entities that are cruel but fair.
The Saturn entity is primordial chaos or something.
Secret Saturn worship is ok with and even demands blood sacrifice.

>4K with FSR

Not at all, the cube can function as a console but it's still a PC. It just makes it more convenient for PC gamers to have a console-like experience.
The Switch and PS5 were already successful. Nintendo just released new hardware, and Sony will soon. The niche the cube is filling is more like an alternative to second-hand PS5s that people might be looking to obtain when the price goes down on account of the PS6 launch.

If Steam deck couldn't kill it why would this? this is just a budget PC, if anything I think this is a far greater danger to pre-built PCs.

Not even close. Maybe the Deck 2, and that's a big maybe.

>PS5
It's weaker than a PS5 and Sony has their army of PS lifers thanks to the brand. At best this is competing with the XBox, which is already a dead console.

The appeal of this will boil down to a price for me, since it's weaker than the current consoles, thus I'm not going to pay as much or more than the consoles for one. I could use a second computer around/backup device, and this would fit the bill for 85% of my needs that aren't high-end gaming or CUDA-productivity related.

Something I'd easily slap next to my TV for media/non-demanding games. I guess for high-end games, it should support SteamLink to just stream them from my actual PC.

Congrats vlave you made a console with 10 year old hardwere inside. Now, if the price is $1000 or less for the cube, then im impressed. A pci slot for a better gpu would be col, as the cube does not have thunderbolt on it, but hey no big deal, the on board gpu looks good enough.

>Valve can just magically make PCIe 20x faster and reduce the size of textures because.... it's just magic ok?

>>725688532
That's not Valve magic, that's just a property of any modern CPU and GPU that supports resizable BAR/GTT combined with the fact that Linux and the mesa graphics stack doesn't suck ass.

They said it won't have console or handheld prices and that it will be priced like an entry-level PC, which it is, so it'll be more like $700-800 lmao

>>725688061
>AAAAAAAAAAAAH I didn't know a steam console was the mark of the beast AAAAAAH
Forever. Better to skip it.

Xbox is the normalfag console. Sony is the brown/black console.

>with FSR

If I already have a PC with 3070 what would be the incentive to buy the steam machine? To play my games on tv instead of monitor?

>>725661560
valve pleeeeease, pllleeeeeeeeeeaaasssseeee bring back the black and white buttons from the duke. pleeeeeaaasssseeeeeeeeee don't let it die with the shitbox. they were the best innovation xbox has ever done

>>725657456
OKAY, THIS SHITCUBE IS A FLOP

bought rog gl552vx in 2017, is this the ultimate upgrade for me?

>>725690254
Well, yeah

>>725653462
I wish. At least the 2060 can use DLSS 4.

I'd rather just buy a MiSTer at that point, since that at least fills a niche traditional computers can't.

>>725690254
>play on tv
you can do that on your current pc anon

>>725653462
that’s more than enough to play games that are actually worthwhile

>>725653398 (OP)
>Entering the console market again when they should be promoting and releasing a new steam deck
I don't care if Gabe dies, Valve and Steam have been shit since making games you pay for go free to play and dropping flash sales.

>>725690852
Oh for fuck's sake, give it a rest, aliexpress shill.
The MiSTer project is nice and all, but it's not competing with a proper PC unless you could a emulated 133Mhz i486 as a "proper PC"

hey thats what im using now!

>>725691183
Man, the day any FPGA device can hardware emulate a Pentium 1 with floating point processor/MMX instruction is the day I grab one for older games. The current ones are too limited for 486-era gaming.

>>725653398 (OP)
What killed the hype

>>725664725
THATS ANTI SEMETIC

>check gabecube specs
>my PC's specs are still better
It amuses me how peasants foam at the mouth, scrambling to consume things that are practically droppings from what I ate yesterday.

You are all such repulsive little roachew in my eyes.

>>725681856
does PC even need to market itself in asian countries anymore since Vtubers exist?

>>725692027
Last I checked, ao486 would have a FPU if there were actually enough available LEs, but it's basically at the ceiling for the FPGA.

>>725693339
Yeah, pretty much just forever in waiting-on-new-hardware territory. The current systems people use can barely play Duke 3d, which is my minimum expectation for the amount of money those things cost.

And if anything new comes out, then it's waiting on cores to get ported/updated/whatever to function with it.

>le specs
It isn't bogged down by wangblows so you can safely multiply expected performance by 2-4x.

>>725693675
I think you mean divide

>>725663920
no, it has 2070

>>725653663
There's a huge gap and they have a product to fill it.

>>725655534
Yep with games going digital only, any online store with no refund policy can fuck right off.

With physical at least you can sell your game if it ends up being shit.
With digital you just have to eat shit.

>>725658386
That's only if you're using a rubbish browser like Chrome.

No, even firefox has some stupid fucking memory leak that showed up in 138 they still haven't bothered to fix.

Looks great but my only concern is how easy is this thing to clean and repaste(in case it uses thermal paste and not liquid metal)
