If Valve wants users to compare the Steam Machine to a PC, then it's going to be outdated in 6 months.

It is already outdated I think? 8GB of VRAM, and CPU and mobile GPU from 3+ years ago. Nobody would build a gaming PC right now with a GPU that anemic and 8GB of VRAM.

No one would build a gaming pc right now at all.

And yet my steam deck still plays everything I throw at it. Could I find a Crysis-type game that was basically designed as a GPU torture device that it would struggle with? Obviously. Is there a resolution difference? Yes. But there are a lot of games coming out only asking for moderate specs.

I wish PCs were still advancing that fast...

Dude still thinks it's 2003.
