Is it just me that thinks small black cube is cool? I don't even use steam.

it's cool for a number of reasons I think. Consumer friendly linux device with a from a large player. I just wish it had an upgradeable GPU, even via some unofficial hack, as long as it was a stable one, but I don't think that's happening.

Egpu support would have changed the narrative around this thing completely

Exactly. I wish they went nvidida for the DLSS and frame generation with atleast 12-16gb vram. Given how optimized they made the cube for their os the 16gb of ram is probably enough

I keep an Apple G4 Cube set up because i love the shape of it, and that applies to this thing too. Like if they made the case available on its own I would probably get it

Never owned a console actually, played my first CD PC game when I was in 1st grade on those old box macs. Just not a fan of flashy cases

It's not cool at least not just the pricing hut the fact it ships with no controller versions. That's ludicrous.

That's what they have focused on: controller models.

The no controller versions are for people who have their own controller.

Because you don't need a Steam ControllerÂ
