Building a next-gen console spec rig just got affordable.
Helldivers 2 is now on the Game Boy Color, sort of.

To me the most important hardware is the battery. Doesn’t matter how powerful the chips are.
There’s no way you’re getting that 40CU 16-core APU in a handheld. That’s too hot and power hungry for that. The highest end APU they’re suggesting is going to end up in gaming laptops that can cool a 100W chip.
I think these articles get things a little out of perspective, Steam Deck has sold around 3 million and Switch has sold 140 million. But if you are browsing certain parts internet you'd think the Steam Deck had sold over 100 million. If articles are going to continue to circulate like this and continue to put the Steam Deck in the same arena then I'm comfortable calling the device a flop.
sure but theres still a limit to what u can put in there ha. power consumption would be the biggest hurdle. and cooling.
I see the point this guy is trying to make, but the average consumer is not going to spend 1000-1800 (cpu’s can cost another 399 or more) to build a PC.
Let alone 500 for just a graphics card.
I’m not sure why some PC heads are so dense to understand that simple economical concept?
Kudos to NVIDIA for what they’ve done here. I’ve always assumed I’d have to pay thousands of dollars to get a high-end experience on PC.
No. You can't play PS5 or PS4 exclusives on PC. They finally put Horozon Zero Dawn on PC when the PS4 generation was ending. You're not going to get PS5 exclusives, or even many of the old PS4 exclusives for that matter. YOU NEED A PC AND A PS5. It's as simple as that.
Here's my thing. Does it run circles around the PS3/XSX? Sure, could i buy that instead of a new console and pop in my existing rig for the same cost? Absolutely. Are there games built from the ground up to take full advantage of this technology? Not on PC! And i don't think there ever will be, but there is for consoles, especially the PS5, which will also have games you can't play anywhere else, so personally this card is not in my interest for now.
Sony on record saying they're bringing their exclusive to pc following Ms like always their really no point in buying ps5 or xbsx.
