Title: YouTuber tries to replicate Steam Machine performance to see if Valve’s promised 4K 60 FPS and 6x GPU boost are realistic, and even tests PS3 emulation
Post by: Redaktion on November 17, 2025, 20:49:55
A popular YouTube channel has attempted to recreate the Steam Machine's expected behaviour by building a compact PC configured to mimic Valve's leaked CPU, GPU and power limits. Their goal is to test claims such as 4K 60 FPS gaming and higher-end emulation support.

4k60 over oculink is likely going to be difficult for any game. I'm not certain which PCI-E version it's using but an internal GPU will have 2x or 4x the bandwidth via at least an 8x PCI-E 4.0 connection.

Not a single Valve game tested is a travesty, as those would easily hit 4k and over 60fps 😄

it says they're using Bazzite, which is basically a 3rd party steam os.

I noticed that the image caption of the Steam Machine here in the article could use a correction. It's USB-A, USB-A, microSD.
There's no USB-c on the front, but one at the back.

but this GPU is an equivalent of an RX 7400 (i.e., a rebranded RX 6600)!
It has only half the CU of the old PS5 (non-Pro).

And the CPU is a nerfed 7400F with a TDP of just 30W.

so such PC isn't worth more than $300-400 :D
And at that price, it's better to buy the twice more powerful PS5
