Für was sollte man aktuell oder die nächsten 2 Jahre eine PS6 brauchen? Selbst jetzt ist die Spieleversorgung an Grafik intensiven Spielen mehr als dürftig. Von mir aus kann die PS5 locker 5 Jahre weiter laufen.

riiight, the same Chinese car makers who just reported a huge slump because nobody outside their own country buys their trash life-endangering cars? LOL

ROTFLMAO!! Good Grief some of you are way to comical!!

Considering I can play modern titles like "Crimson Desert" on my lowly 8yo laptop with a GTX1650ti installed the 'Steam Machine' ought to be fine for what it is for.

It would appear that far to many don't recall or disregard the OTHER consoles specifications (IE: Xbox and PS).

IMHO: Frankly the #1 thing that the 'Steam Machine' does (if anything) is PUSH the Linux Gaming Narrative further into the 'main stream' where it MAY need & get better support from studios, publishers and OEM's (IE: Nvidia & AMD).

The sooner the industry as a whole becomes less attached to Microsoft and their Windows platform the better!
 

But if you only had the choice between being compute bound or memory bound which one would you choose?

I would always choose prioritizing more shader compute over more memory for gaming. Maybe for llm usage it's different?

It's surprising just how playable a 3 year old mobile 6GB vram rtx 4050 is as long as your willing to play at more reasonable settings (lower gfx details, not high resolution) and not go crazy on features (RT, FG, etc). The only game here that is completely unplayable is Indiana.

Remember, there are many igpus that aren't limited by vram as they've access to 32 GB LPDDR5X yet they still suffer more often than not from unplayable frame times in modern games due to lack of shader compute along with not fast enough memory, rather than the amount of memory.

That hardwareunboxed video is right about one thing. A mobile rtx 5070 product should have never came with 8 GB. It maybe fine for a lower end **50 class gpu but not 70 which used to be midrange. Anyways, this video is going to be out of date soon with 12 GB mobile rtx 5070 being here and later n1x coming with way more vram.

But the same applies to igpus with way more vram too? They all give terrible perf per $. Actually they're much worse then dgpus with less vram, which is why valve went with the current specs of their steam machine.

typo: project says 15.8 TFLOPS FP16, not 15.8 TFLOPS.  With so many floating point formats used now, the floating point format must be specified.

s/15.8 TFLOPS/15.8 TFLOPS FP16/
