Title: Elon Musk was 100% sure Cybertruck would play Cyberpunk but Steam gaming can't run on its limited hardware
Post by: Redaktion on February 27, 2024, 19:06:28
Tesla's Cybertruck comes with a larger 18-inch display with higher 2560 x 1400 resolution and a next-gen HW4 computer, but Steam gaming still doesn't show on its infotainment system. Despite Elon Musk's certainty, Tesla's Cybertruck passengers won't be able to play Cyberpunk.

You mean Elon lied? How shocking, so out of character for him.

Huh? Can you clarify here? Steam.exe certainly does not require 16GB of RAM just to launch.

??? Quite sure there are YouTube videos showing Cyberpunk playing fine in Model S. Should play just as well in Cybertruck.

Model S HW4 has 16gb of ram. Cybertruck like the other non premium models use 8gb of ram. The author even states models S/X having more RAM as to why.

it doesn't make any sense.
You can run 90% of steam games on something like steamdeck.

Steam requires 512 MB Ram to run... the whole of windows 11 requires 4gb ram... i can't imagine how anyone who has a basic understanding of pc's can think that steam would require 16gb of ram to run... hell, cyberpunk itself lists 12gb as minimum requirements.

How is this written by a "tech writer"? Steam requires 16GB of RAM? Guess I should throw away my 4GB chromebook

This is what happens when a tech-illiterate human is stuck in traffic for half an hour and decides to spend that time spewing random thoughts all over a web page without researching a single thing.

Shows a complete lack of understanding how Proton works, Steam requirements, what makes a game run, etc. AI could write a significantly better article

Why are people here pulling the incomplete quote to get mad about it?

Full from the article:

QuoteThose boast 256GB storage and 16GB RAM which seems to be the basic requirement for running Steam on a Tesla, in addition to the infotainment systems on them running on an embedded AMD Ryzen APU with dedicated RDNA 2-based GPU that provides 10 teraflops of graphics processing power.

So "Those boast 256GB storage and 16GB RAM which seems to be the basic requirement for running Steam on a Tesla", hm. Not in general.

"Steam is currently only available on Tesla's newest Model S and X units with 16 GB of RAM, but Musk recently confirmed plans to offer a retrofit for older vehicles. Model 3 and Model Y vehicles do have Tesla's most recent AMD Ryzen chip, though they don't include a discrete GPU like in the S and X."

It was there also when I saw the article a couple of hours ago. Even user meh explained why is so some 14 hours ago:

If Steam didn't suck so bad, maybe it would be compatible on more devices. Who really gives a sh*t if a vehicle has capability to play games when there is way more important sh*t it can be used for?

Bruh you need 32gb of ram just to run the original Oregon Trail game. So how would windows only need 4Gb and Steam 512MB? Gotta love the Internet sheesh.

Wait did consumer motherboards even have the capacity for that much Ram... I stand by it anyways.

Okay jokes aside I was practicing for my interview to become a journalist I really, REALLY want the job can't you tell? Okay now I'm done. Yes you are correct and the article lost me at that part. I have to assume they meant Cyberpunk or games in general? At least I hope so.

He could have literally just told people you need to buy a steam deck and just connect it to the cybertrycks screen, it's really that simple and let's him sell steam decks, and anyone wanting to hack mod or upgrade their car to play video games is free to do that on their own rime. It's a weird unreasonable request lol and it's like dude yeah...

 I'm sure you COULD run a stripped down version of any game on any hardware eventually especially if the cyberpunk is parked and not actually using its processing power...

But he could be out here selling steam decks if he just made sure those handheld devices simply fit anywhere in any cup holder or center Console and then connect it to the cybertrucks screen with a software update simple as that. All the truck has to do is accept wireless or hdmi wired input from a steam deck but I'm sure wireless is fine right? Maybe he can sell adapters and holders for steam decks and Controlleys and make special edition cyberpunk cybertruck gaming controller with some legit company and make it actually nice and somethin people want who can't afford the actual truck yet

It says steam requirements are 16GB RAM on a Tesla. Read it closely. Perhaps it takes 15.5gb to run everything else simultaneously.
