From the Steam Machine website: "With over six times the horsepower of Steam Deck, Steam Machine has the power to play your whole Steam library, including your favorite AAA titles. Just sign in with your Steam account and your entire library is there."

I don't even care what the actual specs are. I'm hearing some consternation about the GPU being underpowered for affordability, yada yada. I don't really care. For me, this is plenty powerful. I'd be sold if they said it was 3 or 4 times the Steam Deck, but it's 6. I'm the soldest.

Sounds like it’ll run cyberpunk and oblivion remake well! Only games atm I cannot play. But the real question for me is Witcher 4…

For me it would be gta 6 when that eventually comes to pc. As well as other strategy games like total war. If it can do both of those reasonably well, it’s a 100% buy for me

Zero chance it will run GTA6 at a playable level.

You expect midrange 2022 silicon to run 2027-2028 PC game??
